{What a Great Date}

I feel bad.... I know I'm going to make some of you really jealous when I tell you about my Valentines day date, but, well I'll just apologize in advance. Are you ready to hear about this most fantastic date? Derrick, the romantic sweetheart that he is, took me (oh, yea and our boys) to Monster Jam for valentines day. I mean seriously girls, what could be better than great big huge noisy trucks and lots of rednecks all packed into a stadium? Just add in a little bit of motor cross and it's a pretty great date, right? We really didn't plan this as a valentines day date. The boys both have birthdays coming up and we took them for their birthdays, it just happened that it was valentines day also. The roads were horrible and it was a long tense drive, but the boys were so excited and I'm glad we got the chance to take them.

What could be better than a date with THREE handsome guys?
AWWW, look.....♥Hearts♥ on the cars and the ramp, how sweet!
Franken-Freak! What a silly boy, hehe!

(he came up with the name Franken-Freak)

And another silly boy!

Well heck, if we're all pulling faces, top that!

I think the freestyle motor cross riders were both Derrick and my favorite. It's amazing to me the way they can flip, and jump and the tricks they do. I think we may be in trouble though, now all Kaleb wants to do is learn tricks and he's sure he can do it, no problem! UMMM, mom thinks NOT!
Aren't they cuties?
Of course we had to spring for the souvenirs......how could we not, they were a bargain?
Spoiled Rotten Dang Cute Kids!

We had planned to go out to dinner, but spaced that it was not only Saturday night, but Valentines also and everything was super busy, so we settled for Fazolli's and the kids thought that was great. I have to shout out a big thanks to Sheri for keeping Carlie. I knew there was no way she would sit through the show not to mention 5 hours of driving is too much for a little girl, so I was super happy when Sheri offered to keep her. Even after being there all day, she cried when we got there to pick her up, she just wanted to stay with "my Siney" (Sydney). In Derrick's defense, we did go out last weekend for a great dinner. We went to Monroe to Sagebrush Grill for Ted's birthday. We'd heard rave reviews and I must say it was very good, so if you are ever in the area, try it, I think you'll be glad you did!
