The Claw


Chris and I were at Mejier Friday night to rent from the Redbox. Right next to the Redbox was a claw machine, with a lot of different stuffed animals. There were these two girls who put in at least ten dollars trying to grab any stuffed animal they could, unfortunately they walked away with nothing. I always saw that claw machine there every time I went, and I really wanted to give it a shot. I am the queen of the claw machine. Every time I have played it I have won something, my mom is the same way also. One time we left with 5 stuffed animals, and no we didn't put in a ton of money either. I asked Chris for a dollar, and reluctantly he handed one over. I didn't get anything. I asked for another dollar, and after much begging and pleading he handed one over. The claw went down over the Tigger, and out he came!!! I was ecstatic! Chris turned around and yelled "SHE WON!". It was so funny! It totally made my whole night. Chris said he would never doubt me again...



Today the Boardmans' invited us to go to the Planetarium right next to the law school. There was this really fun show called the "Solar System Safari", it went through all the planets and then showed the constellations. The best part was this starry roller coaster ride at the end. It was neat to do something out of the norm. Thanks for the invite friends!

My favorite part is that Chris turned around and yelled to everyone that you won! You two crack me up!
Thanks for coming with us, we had such a blast! And it is fun to do things that are out of the ordinary. Love you guys!

"The claw is our master", "The claw chooses who will stay and who will go". - Those are a couple of my favorite lines from Toy Story, and apparently you are the master. I was always the one donating funds to the machine to support other people's winnings ;o). And by the way your husband rocks, I have never met him but he cracks me up being so proud of your winnings - too awesome. You two look really good. Love you, you're both still in my prayers.
