Yes! Well - I mean - I want to! I haven't bought tix yet. I wasn't sure. Now since I might be going alone (and thus sitting alone) I might try to find a friend! :-) But Pete just promised he'll go with me if I can't find anyone else!
hey! Well... we were thinking of coming to the Wayne Rd tonight... but we haven't asked yet! ;-) Tomorrow I have a Celebration of Life gathering to go in the a.m., and a baby shower to go to in the afternoon. Ironic, I guess. Then Sunday we are "moving" to Chebeague Isl. for the month, to house sit for my grandparents! Busy weekend! How 'bout you?
lmao I made it too! Just BARELY! And I am SOOOO ready for that nap! Unfortunately we have dinner with the in-laws tonight... plus a quick birthday visit to a neice. Then... at like 9 or so... I MIGHT get that nap :-) Last night was a blast - thanks for hanging out with us!
No - I wish!!! I have to write two essays for class before I leave to visit family tomorrow morning... there's no way I could do both! But I hope it's a good party! I will be thinking of all of you! I need to figure out how I might get to see you more often, Roxy!!!
The pic gives me TOTAL confidence in your abilities!lol I'll be around tonight and some this weekend, but we have kids this weekend so that might be too hectic... When are you avail? I don't want to interfere with plans or getting ready for xmas. ;)
