Remember Ben’s first movie I was taking him to? We saw Barnyard(well some of it) and Ben did great and lasted about an hour. The theater on the other hand, EPIC FAIL. We settled into our seats, the lights went down, Ben began to eat his popcorn and then about 10 minutes in the lights came back on and the movie stopped.

All About Us
I’ve decided that since we are celebrating J’s birthday all weekend I would do a little Q & A about the two of us. 1. What are your middle names?

He asked me out. 5. How old are each of you? J…
