We had such a great time! I really honestly couldn't had a better time. Ms. D already gave a pretty accurate run down of the days events so I'll just add a few more.
Okay I'm a nervous nelly and while my 2 dear friends are much more relaxed well okay the husbands too I'm like this high strung keep the kids in eye site at all time which was hard to do and honestly exhausting but it we managed to do it and all the kids where sent home with the right parents;). I will say that my guys where sad to leave their friends but I did get a THANK YOU MOMMY for letting us see our friends today, needless to say they miss you all dearly:(.
I'm not a germaphobic by any means but like Ms. D had already said the kids where touching everything they could get thier grubby little hands on. Oh my goodness it was driving me mad and D I had to LOL with " I was starting to dream about decontamination rooms" b/c I was thinking something very similar and when they got some good hot baths when we got home! Okay the next morning b/c we didn't get home till 2am.
By the end of the night the kids where done as where the parents. Poor Buffy did have a sore foot but she was such a trooper and just hobbled along with us not even complaining though deep down she was just screaming LETS GO HOME!!! Weren't you Buffy. You're such a trooper and thanks for taking one for the team/group. I hope your foot is feeling better now FYI.
As for the diner that we ate at I wasn't overly excited about it and it wasn't that good to be honest or at least I didn't think so and neither did Stud. Over priced which was b/c of location and the food was ahh. The service was "okay" too though Buffy you may have gotten better service b/c of your little flirting boy. OHHHH and I was so put off with the waitress telling your kids to sssshhhhh. She said it twice, if she had said it again I was going to say something. First, it's a friggin diner not a high class resturant it was late and the boy who was squealing isn't even friggin 2 yet! Okay she pissed me off big time to say the least.
Lunch the sandwich I had was okay though I did hear a few say sthe sauce was to sweet I don't like pizza and hardly ever eat it so I can't comment on it but if we weren't so darn rushed it would have been better. I hate being rushed and to add to it my darling Stud of a husband lost our tickets to Statue so he was stressing to find a computer and of course I'm stressing too b/c I know he is stressing. See I have to worry about everyone else as oppose to just worrying about me. So what if we couldn't get on the ferry, yes it would have sucked but I'm fairly certain life would go on but I also know that my Stud would have been grouchy over it.
I will say going to ground zero had me choked up. I wish we had gone during the day so I could put my sunglasses on. I had a huge lump in my throat and if I really thought to much at the site I would have been a sobbing mess and I didnt' want my kids to see that and honestly I didn't want anyone to see it lol. I'm not a big public crier (I'm a big crier:) and being there and thinking would have sent me over the edge. So I said my prayers in my head for the victims and thier families. Then concentrated on the kids again lol. It really made my heart happy to pay respect to ground zero it's something I've wanted to do for a long time and i'm glad I was able to make it there before we move.
We all had a fun filled day and it is something I will always remember. Oh and I enjoyed the mama mia moment and me singing Laura Burkner song that damn Victor Vito... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQVNX4L2aRo

September 29, 2008 at 4:29 AMI didn't particularly care for food in the diner neither. I just had to sit and watch as your food was coming in and we had all the kids, too:-). The waitress didn't annoy me as much as that other guy who kept passing right by us and all of our stuff, even though he could just as easily, easier actually because he wouldn't have to jump, hop and skip, get to his table the other way.- Anonymous said...
September 30, 2008 at 10:31 AMI agree that the food was mediocre ALL DAY! Wish the pizza was stellar, but sadly for Mr B, it was not. Oh well. It did the job! The diner...OUCH, is all I'm gonna say. We could have eaten at The Melting Pot for that price...good lord! I was mostly sad that we didn't get to end off the day by eating a communal meal. Would have been nice. Oh well...next time:-)
