Natal Festivities Part 2

Thursday October 2nd, 2008. It was the 28th anniversary of my baptism. It was also another day of celebrating my birth. And it was freaky fun! I got taken to lunch by my friends on the Housing Committee at Wasatch Mental Health. I picked the Smokehouse because they have one of my favorite desserts... Peanut Butter Pie. It's like a slice of heaven on a plate, drizzled with chocolate.



Thursday evening, I met some of my work girlfriends for dinner at Wingers and then a movie. We saw Mama Mia... The Sing-A-Long version! It was my 4th time seeing Mama Mia and the 3rd time seeing the Sing-A-Long version. It's where they put the words up on the screen and you sing along. (No bouncing balls, but it's easy to follow along.) When I had previously seen the sing-a-long version, it was really hard not to get up and dance, particularly during the Dancing Queen scene. On this particular night, before the previews started, there were just my friends in the theater along with a couple of older ladies sitting in the back. A couple of other girls came in dragging a boy behind them. They asked if we were going to sing, and they were told that it was my birthday and we were going to sing and maybe dance too. They laughed with us and we settled in for the show.





Wendy and Diane... the Dancing Queens.











This was the cute fella that came and danced in front of us near the end of the movie. We had no idea who he was but assume his girlfriends convinced him to come and dance for for me. He wished me a Happy Birthday and I gave him a big hug. It was so funny! Everyone in the theatre was laughing.










Thanks Girls!!! Krissy, Miriam, Michelle, Bekah, Katie, Karen, Polly, Amanda, Wendy, Alesa, Diane, and Nicole.
p.s. Shawna, thanks for coming to dinner. Wish you would have stayed for the movie and made a fool out of yourself with the rest of us.

WOW Caitlin! I have an idea. Don't tell Aunt Karen when the wedding is ... tell her you mailed an announcement but you don't know what happened? Wait a minute... Karen is gonna read this isn't she?! I'm totally kidding Karen. You shouldn't do that Caitlin... it's cruel. I love my family! xoxoxo
