...meandering thoughts and a reminder to myself that a mundane day can be just as beautiful as a spectacular one.

Volo Auto Museum

On Memorial Day Weekend,
we went to the Volo Auto Museum.
Wow.  I can't believe we haven't
visited this place sooner.

They have Pee Wee's bicycle,


The Simpson's,

  
the Ghostbusters car,
(wouldn't it be the coolest to drive
this around??)



and the Back to the Future car!
(Okay, maybe this one may be slightly cooler
to drive around in - especially since it can travel
in time, right?)





Well, since I can't exactly buy the Ghostbusters car
or the Back to the Future DeLorean -
I could see myself driving this beauty.
She's so cute.   Red car's are the classiest.


To top off our Auto Musuem adventure,
the mister & I pretended
that the Blues Brothers were our
buddies and they invited us on stage
for a little dance with them.

  
This place is great.
I think we'll definitely visit again.
Gosh, I love being a child of the eighties.

Oh, to be Samatha Baker...


Friday's are cool anyway
but, when you spy Molly Ringwald at lunch-
big bonus full of classic eighties
movie fun.  I totally wanted to be Samantha Baker
from Sixteen Candles when I grew up.

Mainly because of this scene here. 
*sigh*  Isn't this just what love looks like?
Fluffy pink dress, chandelier, birthday cake, candles - 
all sixteen of them.
Butterflies just flutter in my stomach thinking about it.

12 Days of Christmas Disorganized Harmony Style

On the twelfth day of Christmas,  
my mister reminded me of

Twelve bearded photos of Brandon, 

 
Eleven jokes from Grandma, 


Ten minutes of muppet, 

Nine Teen Witch Sing Alongs, 

Teen Witch via IMDB

Eight laughs from Briante, 

Seven sparkles on steampunk jewelry, 
Six bells on chihuahua collars, 

The Fabulous Five, 

Four chocolate Minstrels, 
Three stiches in my bottom lip, 

Two Kindle Fires, 
And Margot got a monkey! 

 

From our family to yours,

Happy Holidays everyone!

80s Nerd Band - The Spazmatics

I love the 80s.
So, when an 80s nerd band came to the Raue -
we figured we'd take a time out of "Workin for the Weekend" 
to celebrate our "Tainted Love" because we "Just Can't Get Enough"
and there's "Always Something There to Remind Me" that we are 
"Livin' on a Prayer."
The Spazmatics are my heros.
You should see how they rock a cow bell.  No really -  you have to see
these guys.  They're so nerdy, they're really really cool.
