Summer MuMmers

Last night I got to attend my very first Summer MuMmers show. It was awesome :D

The Credit Union got about 50 tickets for all their employees and family members. Since some weren’t able to go, mom got extra tickets and took me, Mac and Jeremy. I’ve always wanted to see what the show was about and I’m really glad to have gone.

First, when you look at what they tell you wear and what not to wear, you think, “What am I getting myself in to??”

They recommend children under 16 not attend the show. So, of course, you understand right away that this will NOT be a PG show. You are asked not to wear any high heels or flip flops. No jewelery and don’t wear anything you want to get ruined by grease. There is a TON of popcorn flying!

After awhile, the popcorn throwing kind of got annoying, but it was all in good fun. Anytime the ‘bad guys’ came out on stage, there was tons of popcorn thrown at them. (We caught alot of the flying popcorn because we were sitting RIGHT in front of the stage) Also there were quite a few popcorn fights between tables. Even my dear o’ Mom decided to dump a bag of popcorn on my head while I watching the show. Seriously, when I got home last night, I was pulling popcorn out of shoes, pants pockets and underwear… Not a very fun ride back home with popcorn down your pants lol.

I wish I would have taken a camera last night because when Summer MuMmerswe finally left, there was popcorn piled up past our ankles on the floor. I think I read somewhere that they pop around 800 lbs of popcorn for the shows. That’s ALOT of popcorn!

The acting was good, there were some corny lame jokes :D hehe  but we really enjoyed ourselves. I really liked that after the play was over, they had a lot of different acts come out and do little skits. There were girls dancing, guys dancing and lots of singing. I really hope we’ll get to go back next year. I know next time I’ll enjoy it even more because I won’t be 8 months pregnant and I’ll be able to get me one of those wonderful looking margaritas. If anyone is ever in Midland during the summer, you should really check out Summer MuMmers, it’s something you’ll never forget!

Weekend in Abilene

Family, Friends No Comments »

BridesmaidsdressesI actually got to get out this past weekend!! I’m not sure if everyone knows but my sister Shanna is getting married!!  We headed to Abilene for our first appointment with David’s Bridal along with the 6 other girls in the bridal Party.

My sister Sarah and I are sort of sharing roles lol.. She will be the maid of honor and i will be the matron of honor. Usually the maid of honor does the bachelorette party and everything but considering that Sarah is only 16, i’m not sure she’s going to be able to do that good of a job. I think I will have a lot more help on this bachelorette party than Tracie’s because just the simple fact that these girls are partiers lol..  We decided on a dress that I’m thinking that we all like.

The color is "pool" and is the dress to the left. The little clip will go on the back of the dress.. I think it clips on to a little sash or something.. Just trying to give us a little "bling" so Shanna’s dress who has total blingage won’t out do us hehe..

I didn’t get to try mine on because they didn’t have my size.. but I think it’ll all be good. We go back in November on the day of Sarah’s 17th birthday to try all dresses on and get alterations if needed.. I’m hoping I’ll go back around 10 lbs lighter.. i felt soo big compared to the size 2’s and 4’s there.. lol anyway, as soon as I get pictures from this weekend I’ll post them on the picture page!
