Time to play Catch up!!!!

Let's see... Chris had his birthday on Sunday. He turned 37 and we went to Perkins Saturday morning for breakfast and then to pick up his birthday cakes. Yes, I said cakes. We got a small chocolate one to share with the kids and then a Cold Stone Creamery Ice cream cake for just us. Cause we're mean like that. Meghan had a birthday party that afternoon so we had cake after dinner that night and opened his presents too. He got a sweater, a thermal shirt, the first season of LOST on DVD and the new AC/DC cd. Just in time for the concert that night.

After dinner Tanie came over to watch the kids and Chris and I went to AC/DC at the FargoDome. It was packed so we parked over by the BSA and walked over. Once in the doors there were signs every where stating that they we patting down for cameras, phones and all that other illegal stuff. I got a little panicky cause I brought my small camera to take a picture of Chris and I, and I didn't want to lose it. I kept it in my side pocket till the very last minute then stuffed it down my bra. HAHA! They weren't frisking anyone! They did check purses, but I never bring mine in to places like that. So I was safe!

The opening act was a band out of Belfast called The Answer. They were loud and weird and well I never figured out the question so whatever right? AC/DC got on stage at about 8:45 and played till just before 11. I think we were home by 11:15, so not too bad. Chris had bought tickets with a guy from work so we sat with him. It was a great show, again very loud, but good. Those old guys are crazy. I of course took some pictures and were pretty impressed with how they turned out.

Not bad for my little camera huh? Just think of the pictures I could have taken with my big camera. Of course that camera wouldn't have fit in my bra!

Sunday we had DI all day with the kids and I had my Christmas party for the FCC. Won myself a Feckin' t-shirt I did. Wahoo! We did go bowling and might have drank a tad too much. But it was fun and even though there was a ton of drama that night, we all survived. Here is one of my favorite pictures from the night. The rest of the pictures weren't too suitable for this sight. HAHA!

This is Johnny and me as well as Ryan and his wife Laura. Good times! Oh and BTW I kicked all their asses in bowling. Well Duh!

This week brings blue day for Ryan at preschool as well as snow day on Friday. Meghan has an ice skating party on Thurs. Guess I should find some skates for her. Piano starts up again for both girls. Katie had dance on Monday. As for me...One month from today I will be out of work. Tick Tock!

Awesome pics!! My mom always told me the story of the time she smuggled in a tape recorder to a concert by covering it with tampons and pads...the bag check guy took one look and handed the bag right back. Wonder if that would work for the big camera?
