My Mom took the kids for a cousins sleep over and that was great for the kids and for us. We decided to go to Maglebys Grill with our friends in our neighborhood, Mel and Jake, Tracy and Jeff. We had a blast. We ate good food an
d enjoyed great conversation.
I had some movie tickets and was dying to see Dark
Knight. Dennis and I decided to go and see it later that night. WOW!! Heath Ledger was amazing and every time he came on the screen he sent chills up my spine. He made the role of the Joker very real not like a comic book villian, but an actual real person. It kept me on the edge of my seat. Warning, it is very long, but it went by so fast. There are a few twists that I wasn't expecting. Definitely a movie to see on the Big Screen!!

Finally pictures of can we jump?
I know it has taken me a little while to
post this but here it is.
We have been telling our kids since our garage sale in the fall that we were going to get a trampoline and finally about a week ago we got one. The kids were so cute all of them were in the backyard helping him set it up. When we got the mat up and on its springs they asked if they could just sit on it. It was so cute, all 4 of them were so excited and were content to "just sit" on it for a while. It wasn't long and they were asking if they could jump. We still needed to build the enclosure, but we let them all jump for a little bit. I am so happy to have a backyard they can enjoy playing on. Dennis worked really hard to get it set up and I would post pics but he took them with him on his trip to Chicago. So I will get them when he gets back.
We went to the boys Hope of America concert it was amazing the boys have been practicing so hard for many months. It blew me away. The fifth graders are dressed in specific colors that make up an American Flag. Many fifth graders in the area participate from several schools. The boys took this very seriously. If you know my boys you will know why, can we say DRAMA!! That's my boys. We had to have cool sunglasses, flashlights, the works. The end number was beautiful all the kids have flashlights that they turn on, it is all choreographed so well. It was very moving and brought me to tears. Thank you boys for a wonderful performance. I will post some more pictures soon.
