It Happened AGAIN!

IT HAPPENED AGAIN PEOPLE!!!

I was sitting in a restaurant (I do occasionally eat at home) minding my own business when I spotted the child of famous blogger.

This little one is such a cutie! Oh my goodness! You just want to squeeze her!

And she wasn't even freaked out when I ran over to her and picked her up and swung her around and yelled, "I know your mom! I know your mom!"

Ok, maybe I didn't go that far, but I got a big hug out of her by the end of dinner. She is so adorable and might I add, very mature for her age.

You are welcome Miss D!

Oh, and did I mention that I got to eat dinner with her mother as well? LOVE HER! She is the craziest Nutty Hamster Chick you will ever run across!

There was this other guy at the table that was sporting some hand mustache. Kinda weird, but he paid my bill, so I wasn't about to complain.

Seriously, what are the odds of running into another famous blogger's child? (And the blogger too of course!)

I {heart} Cafe Rio

It's not just the food that's amazing, but the people you see.

I've been there twice this week alone for lunch. I'm spoiled, I know. I was there on Wednesday eating lunch with two coworkers when a cute lady just plopped down in the seat beside me. I screamed. We hugged. We laughed.

We made arrangements for a lunch date to celebrate our February birthdays and we thought we better bring along this lady too. Her birthday is in February as well. Weird! Let's set the date ladies!

As I was leaving I walked by a table and recognized a young man sitting there. I knew him when he was this big (pointing to my knee). Fine! He was taller than my knee, but he was very young. I knew him before he was all grown up and had a family of his own. I knew him before my youngest was born. My youngest turns 19 this summer. {SIGH} I am old.

So today when I went to Cafe Rio with my hubby for lunch, I thought the coolest part was standing in line and finding a wad of cash on the ground. But noooooo! Although my hubby would disagree with that!

The coolest part was meeting this lady's daughter.

I'm pretty sure i freaked her out. But she's going to have to get used to being the daughter of a famous Dummy.

I {heart} Cafe Rio. I have to go more often!

THE PROOF IS IN THE PUDDING.....ERRR PICTURE

As I wrote on facebook page, I had my picture taken with Sione & Filipe from Season 7 of Biggest Loser. I love these guys! I loved them on the show! I rooted for them and was so sad when they were voted off by he who shall not be named.

Yes, that is me and Filipe! (With Sione in the background)

This pic is a little fuzzy.....camera phone quality can't be beat! Anyways, Sione, me and Filipe! (I can't stop smiling!)

Sione and Filipe made a special appearance at my place of employment on Saturday and are doing a "Boot Camp 4 Life" there on Mon, Tue & Wed.

I am giddy! I am star struck! I even got to see Sione's cute wife and daughter. (I'm starting to sound like Nutty Hamster Chick as she stalks the BYU football team!)

Oh, and did I mention that I had lunch this week with Shelle AND Queen this week? Two superstars in the blogworld!

I'm on a roll!

And Queen, we'll just keep our second lunch date to ourselves, K?

The Rest of the BBFF's Story (Not for the Queasy)

Tuesday was an AWESOME day!  I got to meet up with 3 blog friends!  I know you're jealous!  

I had already met Nutty Hamster Chick (Pat) last month when she won the WICKED ticket and we went to see it with Serenity Now (Robin -my sister) and my sister-in-law.  

On Tuesday I was to meet up with Pat, T (You Asked For It) and Shelle!  I was soooooo excited!

So, on Tuesday, I was sitting at my desk at work.  It was 11:50am.  I was to meet the girls in 40 minutes.  My cell phone rings.  I don't recognize the number, so I answer it.

Me: Hello?

Man: Hello, Mrs E?  This is Mr So & So at Such & Such High School.  We have your son Broc in the office.  His finger is bleeding pretty badly and he's in a lot of pain.  His fingernail is hanging by a thread.  He was in ceramics class and a door fell on it.  He'll need to be taken to the doctor to have it looked at.

Me: (Thinking to myself) Oh CRAP!  I can't go pick him up and take him to the doctor!  I have a lunch date in half an hour!  He'll have to find another way to the doctor's office.  Will he hate me?  Oh, I don't care.  I have a lunch date with 3 blog friends!  The fingernail will have to wait!

Me: (after long pause) Someone, either myself (fat chance) or my husband will be there to pick Broc up in a little bit.  I'll try to get hold of my husband.

So, I scrambled!  

I called my husband, praying he didn't have any pressing meetings or appointments!  After all, I didn't want Broc to have to sit in the Office for a couple of hours in pain, while I had lunch!

WHEW!   Drew had no plans!

I gave Broc strict instruction NOT to show his dad his fingernail!  My hero doesn't do accidents, blood, needles, hospitals, childbirth or anything that involves trauma.

If he tries to, this is what happens.......

Because Broc was having this removed.........this is your gross photo warning....see above photo as to what could happen to you if you are faint of heart......(there Youngblood and Kazzy...is that better? hehehehehe)

But, then again, I had no idea, because I was too busy laughing at Shelle's space in her teeth, T throwing forks and buns on the floor, and learning how to make Pat's infamous face!

I think I'm in the running for Mother of the Year....what do you think?  This face for my picture?

Next time......pedicures!  NOT!

I'm Not THAT Girl.....Or Maybe I Am!

We're Off To See The Wizard!

Me meeting Pat for the first time......and eating at Rumbi's.....yummy!!!

The show has ended....and far too soon! We have our programs...and I have my T-shirt!

I'm telling Glinda that she should send me more tickets! True story!



Me searching for my lost sister-in-law. She said she was BY the ladies' restroom, not IN the ladies' restroom!

There she is! Found at last!!!

We can't believe it's over!!! How rude!!

Ok, so, I FINALLY figured out how to post pics in the body of my text, so YEAH for me! I'm THAT girl. I just figured it out on my own!

I'm also THAT girl who got to see WICKED for the FIRST time! I was so excited to be able to see it. I have been listening to the music for almost 5 years! I read the book. I HAD to see the play!

And I'm THAT girl who got to meet my first blog friend! I got to meet Nutty Hamster Chick! She is an AMAZING person! We had so much fun, even if it was just for an afternoon and we didn't get to sit by each other in the theater.

I'm THAT girl who has an awesome sister who got us to the Capitol Theater in the nick of time too! WHEW!

I'm THAT girl who wants to see WICKED again!!!! Any takers?
