Recap---

Charter bus, single Marines, and cranky bus drivers make for a FUN and interesting evening. The trip to Orlando was very uneventful... Austin played Pokemon on his DS the entire way, and I slept. They gave us a great chicken salad wrap and chips and water and we were full!

Its awesome to be able to do things One on One with each of the kids, because that night Austin decided to rockwall climb. Rianne would NEVER do this, Carter would but I'd have to be holding their hands and trying to take pictures and worrying about potty time and etc... it was nice to watch Austin be brave, and attempt something. He got 3/4 of the way up, but there were little prickly things on the grips and he wanted to be done.... so the funnest part for him was the scaling down the wall!
The game was a major blow out in the Magic's favor. I have been to a ton of Athletic events, but never an NBA game, so this was awesome. Our seats were in the nosebleeds but the experience was so worth it!

We went to the snack bar and got some ice cream and they were also giving us 50% off merchandise with a Military discount... so I told Austin to get something small... he says, "Mom... I want to get YOU something for taking me here" awwwwwww I thought he was so sweet!THEN.... he says "Mom I dont see anything to hold your beer....ya know like your Jhawk thing, BUT there is a shot glass... lets get that...." MOM OF THE YEAR!!!!!!!

Also while we were eating ice cream and talking to daddy on the phone,a little girl began puking in the garbage can behind us... except she missed, a LOT and I had capris and flip flops on.... OMG it was gross... but nothing a trip to the bathroom didnt fix.

The ride home was so much fun... the Marines behind our seats definately enjoyed the 1/2 beers and all the "officers" paying for their beers. Prior to the bus driver getting on the bus they devised a plan to sing the Wheels on the Bus... they were so funny... trying to make Austin the scape goat... it was a blast because it was like we were at home with Jeremy's brother's messing around! The bus driver literally says to them,"sing that song, you're walkin' home" TOO FUNNY! The worst part about the entire night was the fact that the radio was on a SOUL station to and from Orlando....ugh... granted we knew SOME songs but definately not all... they began a chant for DELILAH(sp?) and eventually got out their cell phones and began playing random one hit wonders. It was a fun time....
