Family Night

My Grandma, me & the kids attempted to go and get the free Grand Slam on Tuesday and I think we probably chose the busiest time. The line was way out the door and right after I parked and started walking with all my kids a guy said I had to move my car. In my mind I am thinking "buddy no one is going to your place when there is something for free" I know I am so rude! Anyway right as we get there the manager is saying how it is a 40 min wait just to get seated and another 20 min to get the food. ARGH, right? But he said if you want he will give a rain check and we can come back anytime. SWEET! He also gave us 2 extra ones. So last night Collin didn't have a meeting and we went to Denny's. It was a lot of fun and I am assuming it was WAY more fun than it would of been on Tuesday. And the best part of all was it was completely free!
Oh and if you live in my area the ValPak has a 2$ coupon for a coffee drink to Cafe Ladro. As far as I can tell you don't have to spend a certain amount. So if you are on the go and don't have your coffee yet...go get a free drip ;)

  1. I went there at about 830am and waited about 15 minutes to get seated. When I left, the line was all the way down the sidewalk to that Gyro place on the corner.

    The wait staff were being good sports, but when I asked one of them said they wanted to kill the person in marketing who had the idea.

  2. We went to the one by the hospital up here after my Doctor's appointment and it was crowded, but everyone could wait inside - it took like 30 minutes to get a seat, and then another 30 or so to get food. I heard people talking while we were waiting who said that the other locations in Anchorage had much longer waits. I'm glad you got rain check vouchers! Hooray for free food :)

  3. You are a brave person. I wouldn't have even attempted it. Glad you got to enjoy the meal at a quieter time.

Okay Dallas when you hit the ball you need to run to 1st base, 2nd base, and then home.....no mom! I don't want to go home!Reese was outside singing today while she was on the swing. And she says to me. "Mom, the sun is coming out because I am singing....I am wakin it up!" Keep singing girl, keep singing!Dallas: Look mom his doesn't have twin wheels! (translation:training wheels)Dallas: When I am a daddy....I want one of those baby Norahs.So sweet!Reese: Mom I like these things...What things? Reese: These Rat-tat-too-ies Do you mean Tattoos?Reese: Yah! TattoosDallas was holding Norah and this is what he said....Norah pooped. She pooped 3 times....Oooo....she pooped 10 times mom!!Reese was going to the bathroom and when she was done she looked (as all kids do) and said "oooo, look mom. I ate carrots!"Reese has been wanting her ears pierced. She spent that night at Ambers house and asked her if she could do it. Amber told her that it would hurt and after she did one ear she would have to do the second ear. She said "how bout you do the second ear first"We been telling the kids that Norah can't have anything to eat because she is to little. Dallas walks in the hospital and get up to look at Norah and says: "I want to see if she has a mouth"In the morning when the kids wake up they come and crawl in bed with us. I was laying on my side talking with Reese. She looked at me and said "Mom...your boobs are hugging" I just laughed. She then said "they love each other" The thoughts of a 5 ....and just in case you were wondering. I was wearing a tank top ;)Mom....when I am a mom I will have two kids and then we will have lots of kids at our house!!(And what do we have now...I am thinking)Dallas looked at my blog and the picture of the "barefoot and pregnant""mommy that's you!"Boy do I love that kid ;)My room is usually a mess. Of course I have all the "good" excuses as to why :) Well my surprise when I got home from work was a nice clean room with a made bed.When Reese came and got me this morning she said "Mom your room is Amazing!"

the things they say...

Reese: Hey mom look! She walks just fine and doesn't even need a cane! (we were at costco and she said this about an elderly lady...nice!)
