(A need to lighten up a little bit)

It’s only Wednesday, and I am already looking towards the week-end! Some of my Home-girls and the hubby and I are headed to Phoenix to see Journey in an outdoor concert at Cricket Pavilion, staying the night at a hotel within walking distance of the concert. Journey has long since been a favorite group of mine from the 80’s.One the hubby enjoys as well. Of course we have “a song” that is ours done by Journey as well. Don’t Stop Believing has been one of “our songs” from the days when we were just dating. And is always listened to at full volume. I am very much looking forward to breaking out of life for 24 hours to enjoy good music and fun friends!

This last week-end with the kids we took them to see March of the Penguins. Fantastic movie!  All four of us enjoyed it thoroughly, not really knowing much of anything about these strong and unique animals/birds? (Obviously didn’t listen quite close enough) They are such beautiful creatures, and have some unique traits, that make seeing this movie a “must see!” I know I am way late considering this movie has been out for some time now. As I don’t care for the crowds that accompany “new releases” I am quite content to sit back and wait for the crowds to die down before checking them out.

Took the kids out to dinner afterwards. It was a fun way to spend a kids week-end! That Sunday we took them for the annual school clothes shopping trip! Kevin took Riley once we hit the mall, and I took Tayler. Needless to say, I had far more luck with Tayler then Kevin had with Riley. It really wasn’t fair to send Kevin off with our “most challenging child” in just about anything. Splitting up based on the boys and the girls just seemed logical. By the time we hooked back up, Kevin looked a bit on the frazzled side, and Riley looked satisfied. Seems the only thing Riley was interested in was getting an ice cream cone, and to hell with clothes shopping. They came out with a minimal amount of shopping done. Tayler was completely finished by the time we were done. (Sorry Kevin)

So in honor of Journey coming to Phoenix this Saturday I wanted to dwell on it a bit! (Builds excitement and anticipation)

--What is your favorite Journey Song?
--Why?
--Is there anyone out there who does not like Journey?
--Why?
--Do you relate their music to any special memories?
--What’s the memory?

C’mon, tell me, I’m curious.
