Beech Bend Park- Mami and Titus perform

After a two day heat wave that was killed by an awesome thunderstorm yesterday today greeted us with warm but not crazy hot weather so it was safe for Titus to come out to the park. Being disabled and in a wheel chair a humid day can be tough on him.
I dropped the kids off at the park early for their morning meet and greet in mascot and stilts and clown costumes. Then I took off to take Mami for her eye exam. That's right,even on the road we have to keep doing things we would do at home. Her glasses are getting old and her prescription has changed so it was off to the doctors. What should've been a 45 minute stop (including picking out new frames) turned out to be a two hour ordeal. That means I would miss the first show since I was watching Titus (walking around the mall) while Mami was "in there".
So I called Cynthia and told her to go on as usual but she will have to call or MC the show.
By the time we got to the park the first show was just ending and all reports were that CC did a great job as MC. She hates doing it because she hates talking in public.
I suffered a third back spasm in 2 days and had to "pill-up" to get through the last show and the rest of the day. You know how much fun it is to do the "Drop Zone" ride while under the influence of pain pills and muscle relaxers?
The audiences were off the charts great today. In other words, they were great. I had a lot of fun performing for them. We designed and got Brandon into a costume and he looks great. Sadly we didn't snap any pictures today. So you will have to wait until tomorrow.
Olivia is just about to loose her first tooth. The little Chiclet bends and twists and is ready to come out but she isn't ready to pull it so we are waiting. Soon.
Loving Kentucky!
