Please, Don't Judge...

Well, here are some updates:

Dylan got that earring...his dad took him and he loves it. It is so tiny, you barely even notice it. Earrings on guys are really not a big deal these days, right?!?!

I got my nose pierced...but if you read this blog, I'm sure you read Scott's and you already nose this, I mean know. I really like it, especially since I've changed to a smaller stud. But I still feel like some people are staring wondering "what is this middle-aged women doing with her nose pierced?" Maybe, maybe not! Scott says all we need to do now is let Cassie get a tear drop tattoo and Marissa get implants and we'll be good to go.





Scott and I had a blast in New Orleans. It was really nice to get away together for a few days. Something all couples should do at LEAST once a year! Once again, if you read his blog, we sound like a couple of alcoholics...with all the hurricanes. But if you know Scott, you know he is full of exaggeration. Or did I forget how much we actually drank due to the tropical cyclones??

Justin and I took Dylan to his first concert last night and it was awesome!!! I'm currently still holding up the official "rock" hand signal.
We saw 3 bands, Cheap Trick, Heart and Journey! They were great. All except for the Trick...I think their sound person must have been playing some kind of cheap trick on them because they sounded really, really bad. But at least they didn't play too long. And it was so worth it once Heart came on. They were mine and Justin's favorite! The Wilson sisters did not disappoint at all. Ann can still rock the house with her amazing voice and they did a song by The Who and Zeppelin...rock on dude!!! Uh, I mean they sounded great and I could have listened to them all night. At one point, Justin got goosebumps listening to Ann's voice. But the headliner was Journey and they put on a heck of a show! Even without Steve Perry. Their new singer was almost as good and completely full of energy. Just wondering if the almost 60 year old Perry (who had to have hip relacement surgery) would have been able to jump around quite a much as their new "Perry". It was a very fun night and it was a nice bonding experience with both of my boys. Dylan loved the concert and was having a great time with some friends (we found some fellow Springcreek friends at the show and shared our blanket with them). For a first concert, I think this was perfect, he loved the show, it was completely family friendly (except for the occasional smell of some skunkage) and I knew more of the songs than he did!



We are off this weekend for our 2nd annual trip to Houston to see the Mets in action!! Marissa and Scott are extremely excited about that. It should be lots of fun. Dylan is wanting to wear his Astros t-shirt from last year (he is NOT a Mets fan) and paint his face the colors of the Astros. We'll see what happens...Scott said if he did, he had to find another way to the game. After the game, Scott is leaving for Alaska via Houston airport and then me and the rest of the gang, including my mom, are off to Galveston for some beach time and a day at Moody Gardens. Should be fun!!

Well, that's it for now. Until next time...
