Disney!

We spilled the beans last night. All that promising I made you do yesterday, you can forget about that.

Jen came up with a great scheme. She went to Barnes and Noble and picked up two books about bringing kids to Disney World. During dinner last night she gave each kid a book and said they had to read it all.

They were pretty confused. Why does mom want us to read a book about kids at Disney World?

It took a few minutes but light started to dawn... are we going to Disney World? Yes!

We gave them all the caveats. We're driving and it's going to be brutally boring. We're staying in a cheap hotel. We won't have time to do all of the parks. It didn't matter, they were both excited.

Then we started looking at rides and they started getting really scared. We hadn't even left the couch yet and they were starting to look terrified. We told them we wouldn't make them go on any rides that were scary, but we would make them go on rides that are not scary. It didn't help. Panic ensued. Then we said if they were that scared we wouldn't go. Then they calmed down and stopped being scared and started being really excited again.

It's still a long way off... but we are ready for it right now. Right. Now.

In hockey news, the Bruins beat Buffalo last night. Read that again. It's not a lie. They beat Buffalo and jumped into sixth place. They haven't clinched yet. They can still blow it. Two loses in the final two games coupled with two wins for the New York Rangers in their final two games and Boston would be eliminated from the post season. Any combination of two points earned by Boston or lost by the Rangers will clinch a spot for the Bruins. It will also clinch a four game sweep that sends them back home before mid-April. But at least they will have made it.

We're totally going to Disney World. Just saying.
