PJs, Chicken, & Swimming

Tonight at our local Chick-Fil-A, if you wore your pajamas ~ you got FREE FOOD.  So, Beth and I took our kids to eat and play before swim!

here they are in their pajamas
 the highlight of the night is always ice cream...on a cone
 Reagan LOVES ice cream
 After finishing our dinner, we headed to swim practice
 he doesn't like it, but he's getting better at putting his head under water
 LOVE this picture!
 time for the backstroke

A New Ride

We bought Cooper a new scooter today, so he and Reagan got plenty of "wheel time" in the garage this afternoon.

trying out his new wheels
 he still likes riding a bike ~ I guess that's next on the shopping list!
 on your mark, set, GO!
 Reagan's too fast to get a picture of!
 she is a whiz on her scooter
 she couldn't resist trying out something of Cooper's

Feeling Like a (New) Kid Again

Tonight, my friend Jessica and I went to see NKOTBSB in concert. If you don't know, that stands for New Kids On The Block/Back Street Boys. We had such a good time!!

I first saw NKOTB in concert when I was a junior in high school ~ it was my first "real" concert that I was allowed to attend by myself. My dad dropped me off after school, and I waited in line for HOURS as it was general admission seating (I did manage to squirm up to the front row!) and April C's mom brought me home!

We're all a little older this time around and while the concert didn't end until midnight and then we had a 1 1/2 hour ride home...it was so worth it!

The "boys" haven't changed a bit, they've gotten better with age!

 
here are some of the cars when we pulled into the parking area
me and Jessica
taking our seats!
there were even guys there!  However most were women ages 25-50
 Matthew Morrison (aka Mr Schuster from Glee) was the opening act

he can sing, dance, act and play the ukele 
 then it was time for the main event:
 Just sit back and enjoy the photos!!

It was fun to be 15 again!  What a fun night ~ even if I didn't get in bed until 2am! 

I have plenty more pictures and videos if you ever want to see them!
