Twilight Irony

Through AMC Movie Watcher, Ralph was able to get us some tickets to the Grand re-opening of the Majestic in downtown Kansas City.  He got us tickets to Twilight for two reasons.  The main one was that James Bond was sold out and the second that it was a Vampire movie and he loves those.  I on the other hand do not like vampire movies and didn't have any desire to see this movie.

Now, here comes the irony part.  He was completely bored because it was a definite Chick Flick!  I believe I even heard the word boring once.  I liked the movie.  A lot!  Surprised me!  Not sure if I will read the books, but did enjoy the movie.  I have had mixed opinions on whether or not to read them, but since I don't have time to read as it is, I probably won't read it/them/whatever.  

I had a good time with the Hubby and was glad we got to be the first ones to sit in this beautiful new theatre with leather seats.  Absolutely beautiful.

What the World Needs More Of...

Yummy, scrumptious, Cheeto covered faces.

Goooooaaaaaalllllll!

She Shoots!

She Scores!

Times 3!!!!

Our darling little girl decided after an entire season of Soccer that the very last game was going to be her breakout moment and boy did she ever.  Who was this child running after the ball with the tenacity of a hungry lion?  Pushing the boys on the opposite team as if she were trying to exit a burning building.  And scoring as if, might I say, she were the offspring of Beckham. (Don't tell me you don't know who that is!) Maybe I shouldn't go that far, but she was "IN" the game for the entire game.  

Grass stained knees that made me weep with joy.  So excited when she scored her first goal that I forgot who I was, where I was.  Yelling as loud as I could, making me one of the "soccer moms".  I didn't care!  I couldn't care!  It was a moment when we realized what metal she was made of.  

Did I mention she got the MVP award?  Pride.  Proud.  Joy.  Pride.  Happiness.  Disbelief.   And YES...more PRIDE!

Time to breathe...we experienced a modern day miracle of which I was privileged to see with my own eyes.

Talk of the Town

I have been hearing about Miss California for several days now and those opinions are strong and clear.  WE SUPPORT YOUR STAND ON WHAT IS A MARRIAGE!

I am immensely disappointed that Perez Hilton would ask such a question in a Beauty Pageant and then berate her on public television for that same opinion that obviously differed from his.  He went on to keep berating her using fowl language to describe his injustice with her.

I can have no respect for someone that does not allow another to have their opinion.  If he didn't want the truth, why did he ask?

I admire her beyond belief.  Do we stand up for what we believe...at all costs.  She lost the Pageant, but in the grand scheme of things, she has won more than he (Perez Hilton) will ever have.  She has respect and honor.

I don't hate gay people.  I know some people that are and have good feelings towards them.  I just don't agree with their lifestyle choice.  And...my opinion is that it is a lifestyle choice.  

Birthday Bash

Miss Boo had a Scooby Doo Party complete with a scavenger hunt for mystery gifts to put in their "loot" bags.  They made Scooby bracelets and played pin the collar on Scooby.  Pizza and cake to top it all off.  She had a great time and even got that pink princess bike she has been wanting for at least a year.
