Want to see something creepy?

Happy late Halloween! I wanted to share with you our night out on Halloween and where I got the idea for my costume.
We have been watching this show on TLC called "Toddlers in Tiaras." It is a show about kids that are in beauty pageants and the parents that actually put them in these contests. It's all really people no actors and the ages of the kids that are in the pageants range from new born on up. It is the craziest show because they put these kids in ridiculous costumes with big hair, lots of makeup and fake teeth called "Flippers." These poor kids look like adults all made up and it is so weird they have a talent competition, beauty walks, and my favorite part of the pageant is Western Wear. I love it! This is my interpretation of the show...I clearly won Grand Supreme! By the way my crown was 7" high oww!This is the walk these little girls do, love the action shot.The parents in this show are the worst, they are usually crazy and the ones pushing their kids to do this. If you haven't seen the show my costume is a little ridiculous please watch, it's like a car crash you can't stop watching. Happy Halloween 2009!
My favorite part of the night was when we were getting ready to leave, two girls came running up to me screaming and laughing. They were screaming Toddlers in Tiaras they loved my costume. They thought it was the funniest thing they had seen all night and totally knew what my costume was from. Those two girls made my night and all the time it took to make my costume. Yep, I said make I sewed the whole thing myself. It was probably the most uncomfortable costume I have ever worn, next year gunny sac.

Roger I love you!

I heard that Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers were going to be in town and I needed tickets. The band is formally known as The Refreshments and I love their music. They were scheduled to perform at the baseball Field after the Diamondbacks game which I thought was pretty cool. See some baseball then a concert and my friend Lisa from work also wanted to go. We got to the baseball game a little late so we could get cheep tickets only $6! I'm not a huge fan of baseball but I enjoy watching, hanging out, and posing with cardboard cut outs of baseball players but we were really there for the concert. Go D-backs! We got up to use the restroom and some random lady that worked there asked if we were there to see Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers, yes!!! Then she handed us VIP passes to go down on the field and see them up close and personal after the baseball game!!! Ahhhh We were screaming and jumping up and down like little kids...I might have even hugged this random lady too. We were so excited. We were still jumping up and down when we realized she disappeared like a ghost, she gave us the passes and disappeared. If we didn't have the VIP passes we would have had to watch the concert from the stadium with everyone else.

The concert was amazing, I love Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers and seeing them down on the field was so awesome because it's really bright and the stadium is huge! Sorry Lisa I love this picture this is how excited we are!!!I wanted them to play a certain song so I got into my bag and wrote on a piece of paper the song so I could hold it up. This song is called Leaky little boat and it isn't something they play a lot and it's one of those secret songs...Anyway I held up the piece of paper and Roger himself looked right at me and shrugged his shoulders and said maybe. OMG! He looked right at me, that was so cool! Roger I love you! We had the best time.
Some of the band members signed my sign, and we had on matching Chuck Taylors.


Ben? What are you doing at the baseball games snack bar...weird?


We had the best time....I wonder if I will ever grow up....probably not. :)
