Harry Potter

The family had a great time with their marathon and Harry Potter. Laura invited a guest and Andre came over to watch the movies with Becca. They watched all five movies and then headed out to the theatre where they waited in line for three hours. I didn't go as I had a dental appointment the next day. Too bad.

They arrived back home at 3am. Laura and her friend were giggling in the back seat of the car. They had pumped so much caffeine, they couldn't stop laughing. They told Tom that they wanted to wait in the car a few moments, to calm down, before coming in an waking the house with their laughter. Tom said fine and went in the house. He was really tired as it was 3am. He was on autopilot and locked all of the doors in the house. This included the garage door, which locked Laura and her friend inside the garage. At 4am, Tom had come to bed and was sound asleep, when I heard the garage door open. I thought for sure someone was breaking into our home and the girls were sleeping in the living room, due to the guest. I woke Tom up gently and told him that someone was in the garage. He went downstairs to find Laura and her friend banging on the door. Needless to say, I had to get up and go to the dentist, but everyone else in the house slept till noon. The moral to this story is, if you have a couple of giddy girls, make them come in the house.

We joined the YMCA, yesterday. Becca had a great time at the pool last night. I have an appointment with a trainer, next Tuesday. He will orient me to all the equipment and help me get fit. He also holds me accountable to exercise. I think I need that.

I am playing for a wedding tomorrow. We love the couple and have been friends of their family since coming to Colorado. I was talking to her mother and I just can't believe that we are old enough to have married children. It seems like yesterday we were planning our wedding. Time sure flies. It has left me feeling a little sad. It made me wonder what the next 22 years of marriage will bring.

Today, the girls and I are off to buy school clothes. I have to make a trip up to my classroom to start moving furniture and putting my room in order. I can't believe it's that time already. I sure look forward to seeing my kiddos.

Jen, have a safe trip. Michelle, package is coming. To all the rest, have a blessed day.
