Mamma Mia...


I have been hanging out with Thomas and Erin since last Friday. I say "hanging out," because it would just be wrong to call this babysitting. #1) These are two of the most intelligent, well-mannered, all-around coolest kids that you'll ever meet! #2) I get to be a kid again. Well, at least I get the excuse to act like one! We've spent the past few days watching the Olympics, out on the lake, playing games, and eating. Yep, it's a tough life. They were so sweet today! When I got to their house, they gave me a cookie cake (complete with "WE LOVE YOU, MEAGAN" and tons of icing decorations by Erin!!) We also went tubing today, which made me feel like a 13 year old again. Too bad my body isn't that young!!!! My battle wounds are the rope burns on my hands, and I'm sure my arms will be sore in the morning. What a workout! But listen to me...I sound like a baby!


Now...the reason for the title of this post. Since Thomas had football practice today. Erin and I decided to catch a movie. We decided on "Mamma Mia." Ok....has anyone seen this????????? Does anyone else think that it's hilarious that Pierce Brosnan attempts to sing in this movie???? Ohhh wow! I did a good job of holding in the laughter at first, but once he broke out into a ballad towards the end.......I LOST IT!!!!!!! I think the people in the movie theatre were laughing at me laughing so hard. I couldn't control myself. All I could think about was James Bond (007) up there on the big screen busting a move and singing!!!! If you haven't seen this...he makes for a good laugh. Don't get me wrong, I love musicals. However, I think they're best on stage. It's just random to see actors bust out into song. You start to think "Here we go again..." Still, we had a great time today, and I hope that Erin's not too worn out for her first day of school tomorrow.
