Are we ready for this?

We leave for Florida in 30 hours. AE is getting really nervous she asked today, "Mom, what if we get down there and all of the girls are really good?" I responded with, "Well, AE they wouldn't be there if they weren't."

This is going to be a whole new adventure.

All the info is posted here:

We have two of the top five finishers in our pool right off the bat so guess we will find out right away if we have what it takes, might as well get it out of the way. Our pool is a team from Maryland, Indiana, and Georgia.

We are staying at two houses, all 26 of us and the girls think that it is going to be one big slumber party, however they are going to be in for a rude awakening when they have two games a day.

Dan and JG are going to do some "just JG" things, like go to Animal Kingdom etc.

We will keep everyone posted on the girls' progress, say a little prayer for the little Stars.

Eeek - the most important project? Whoa, better bring the A game, but you know I am excited - scared - but am ready to go. I have so much to do before the 8 th , gotta get the list together to make the most of my kid free week (now that litte man is at daycare in the a.m.).

Z is like for Zodiac

Shelly and I went to the movie Zodiac last night. The theater was nearly packed with mostly men and couples, so it was a bit obvious when two teenage girls talking on cell phones walked into the movie 20 minutes late. Shelly turned to me, "Why would you even come to a movie like this if you are 20 minutes late?" I agreed especially since they had already missed the first victims meeting their demise and the opening which told the viewer this was a true story. You just had to know they were going to be lost the rest of the movie, plus the only reason they were probably there was to see Jake Gyllenhaal . The movie was very good, one of the best I have seen since The Departed , I read the book and the prime suspect was much creepier on the screen than I imagined in real life. At the end of the movie, Shelly stopped by the ladies room and I waited outside. The two teenage girls we saw walk in late also went to the ladies room with cell phones glued to their ears already. At our...
