DMB recap....

as much as I hyped the DMB concert up, I'm sure that you would have expected an update on the adventure by now, right?! like I said before, I've been super busy... I promise to post some of the pictures/video that I took, ASAP... however, my USB is MIA, and I haven't been able to download the images on to the computer yet. Be patient people. :)

The concert was... amazing because I had some fabulous people surrounding me (when I wasn't busy getting lost in the crowd), and I love the atmosphere when everyone is singing and dancing, and just having a good ole time no matter what. BUT, as for the play list, it was sub-par to say the least. There was no "Two-Step", just to start.... actually, let me go the short route. There were about 5-6 songs that the crowd could get into, and really sing along to. Believe me, I haven't been to a Dave show in years, but I've been to A LOT... and this was by far the least favorite. I can't say I didn't enjoy myself b/c it's always good. It just wasn't what I expected?! I'm not sure how to describe it. Maybe we really are... "just getting old?!?!?!" like Amy and I were saying just the day before the show.

The highlight was having to turn around (from Manassas) to get Nicole's ticket which had been left in Alexandria at Amy's. THAT SHIT WAS HILARIOUS... and if it wasn't Nicole, it would have been Amy and I. The three of us, just realized that it wouldn't have been an adventure, had something like that not happened. I wish I had Nicole's face on camera when she realized that she didn't have her ticket. Oh man, all in all -- I'm so glad that we got to spend the weekend with my girls, and thoroughly enjoyed my Mother's Day gift (thanks Christopher!) XX

I arrived home on Sunday morning... er, afternoon rather -- since we didn't really get out of bed 'til 11:00ish... to a home that was in TURMOIL. Poor Connor and Marleigh had to be separated from Joey b/c things were getting so rough. There was blood drawn, even! Connor still has a big ole scratch on his neck. And, believe me -- our children were not faultless... I am sure that they were picking just as many fusses, as Joey was.... however, I think b/c Joey is an only child -- he was sick of dealing with sharing and getting along with two other kids by the time Sunday rolled around. Can you blame him?? (I was an only child... I feel his pain... I still don't like to share). However, the fact that blood was drawn, will defiantly make me think twice before these three are put in a position to be forced to share and bond, etc. for a long period of time, again....

Hope that all have a safe and fun 4th! We'll be enjoying the fireworks, some live music, and of course (the Jones family favorite... FOOD!!!!) at Ft. Belvoir this afternoon/evening.
