Holiday Road

We went to see some lights in Spring Lake that we had heard about on the news that were supposed to be pretty cool.  We had nothing to do that night so we decided to do something fun....what an experience!!! We were told to get there right when it started at 6 so we left pretty early.  On our way we had plenty of time so we decided to stop and eat at Taco Bell and we got to our exit about 6:45 and there were so many cars backed up that we could hardly get off the highway!!! I was not expecting to have to wait at all let alone that long.   We contemplated turning around but i really wanted to see the show and we were already there so we thought we would wait it out.  Long story short.... we ended up waiting until 9:45 to see the show and it was quite interesting during the wait.  First of all.... because i had no idea it would take that long i wasnt prepared to give Blake a bottle and i didn't have any water! we scrambled around to try and find some and we had nothing!  Because we were bumper to bumper in line i got out and walked to a house to ask for some and of course got no answer! finally the car behind us must have noticed what we were doing and they gave us a half drinken bottle of water! hahaha  sounds kinda gross but we were desperate! after we got Blake calmed down then Tanner decided he had to go potty! of course!! he had been doing so well with the potty training and i wasn't about to let him just go in his pull-up so Ross got out and took him in the woods to go to the bathroom! He had never done that before and thought it was pretty cool.  Hopefully we didn't start a bad habbit! :) after the kids were taken care of then I had to go to the bathroom and there was absolutley NOWHERE to go!! So you guessed it....yes! i went pee in my Taco Bell cup!! again...i was desperate!! So overall our wait was pretty interesting.  If we would have known that we would be waiting for 3 hours we would have NEVER stayed, but im glad we did it was really cool to see!! i was so busy watching it that i didn't take any pictures! Oh well... i don't think that we will ever forget that night!!
