Date Night/Dance Party

Mark and I try to treat ourselves to a date night occasionally. One of the fringe benefits of having teenagers is that we can hire them whenever we feel the need! We went out last night to celebrate our anniversary since Mark was in Nashville on Tuesday night. He was lucky enough to find a room at a Red Roof Inn due to the Presidential debates being in Nashville. I asked him if John McCain and Barak Obama were staying at the Red Roof Inn. In case you are wondering – he didn’t see any signs of either candidate or the secret service. Gee, and you would think the candidates would be trying to be frugal with our money during this time of financial crisis…

Zack and Katie are really awesome babysitters. The videos show highlights of a recent date night when Katie was watching the little ones. That Katie - she is so much fun! Why she lets the kids dress up, listen to wild music, and discover their inner dancing and musical talent!

Marco is "Woody", Gustavo a fireman, and Ana Lucia just a mismatched-dressed-pitiful-looking girl. For the record, Katie would NEVER dress Ana Lucia in such an outfit. It is the dear child's neglectful mother that allows her to dress herself when we are hanging out at home.

Should I be concerned that my three youngest children know the lyrics to Mama Mia?
