the night after school got out, we went out to spring mountain ranch to see annie. grandma becky rode out with us. we got there at 5:30, which meant we had to wait 30 minutes in the sun before going in to get a spot in the meadow. we did get a better spot than last year though. jen, jodie, mason, grace, quincy and beckam got there just a couple minutes after we sat down.
it was warm out, but that changed once the sun went behind the mountain. (we were more prepared this year with more blankets.) we had our dinner... sandwiches (egg salad, chicken salad, pb+j). grandma took all of the kids for a little walk and then over to the concession stand for ice-cream.
the show started a little bit after 8:00. it was a lot better than last year's show. but, by the time it was over, every kid was fast asleep. and grace was even snoring. ;) we had to wake them all up, because there was no way we could carry them out with all of our stuff.
we didn't get home until midnight, after dropping grandma off.

i think we've decided we'll only come again next year if us adults can find some comfy little chairs to sit in, that ground is killer after a few hours.
