It started with Amelia. We both love the show, and coming over was her chance to get some toddler time while avoiding the ever present boyfriend-rolling-his-eyes while she watched at home. Turns out that’s a common phenomenon… come on guys, you know you want to watch! First it was Amelia (check out her blog for the juicy details), then I invited Sarah (the eye-rolling thing was happening at her place too). Then Bailey and Tracey… this week Laura joined in, and now it’s a weekly tradition! We have a few drinks and spend a couple of hilarious hours poking fun at Jillian and her often pathetic suitors. What could be better?
As Amelia says, Aurora provides the “pre-show entertainment.” This week Amelia brought her camera (thank you!), but somehow we just couldn’t get a picture of Aurora trying to mimic the leisurely position she was standing in - leaning against the wall putting one foot across the other. The closest we got is her seriously contemplating the pose…
Once the little one was off to bed, we all worked on preparing a pot-luck style dinner and settled in for the drama. Chuck always pretends he has work to do, but you know he's paying attention the whole time!
Next week is the “Men Tell All” episode, then the following week is the two-night finale. I’m pretty sure we’re all going to take two days off and have a slumber party to watch them both. Who will Jillian choose!? And more importantly, once it’s over… what will I do with my Monday nights!?!
Speaking of bachelorettes, I have officially NOT been a bachelorette for over 12 years now. I’m sure you already know that Chuck & I celebrated our 12 year anniversary on Sunday. You may not know that this week is my 3 year anniversary working for the Lance Armstrong Foundation. Some dudes on The Bachelorette may fear commitment, but not me!

What are you going to do on Monday nights? Are you ready for some football! Ha Ha.
Happy anniversaries! Cute pictures!
Sounds like a fun evening. I don't watch the bachelorette but I love the Women's Channel movies and get a lot of flack from hubby so I understand where all the girls are coming from. This past week end I watched a Woman's movie, "I Want to Marry Ryan (forgot the last name)." It was a story patterned after Bachelorette about girls competing for the hand of a famous star. I enjoyed it very much.
Again, your wedding anniversary slipped my mind until Julia reminded me on Sunday. I called Sunday evening and left a message. Hope you were out celebrating and had a great day. Also, congratulations on your 3 year anniversary at the Lance Armstrong Foundation.
Notice how no one is sitting on the couch because Tater is there. That cat is wicked.
So, Tater knows how to get the couch all to herself, smart Cat, LOL!
Monday night football is my favorite Monday night activity! Glad I haven't been in the single's scene for almost 30 years. It was a challenging time to meet a quality dude like John.
Congrats on the LAF anniversary! I'm sure you are a real asset to their team.
I so wish I could have been there!! My family made fun of me for being glued to the tv. And aurora looks so cute in that picture.
Andrew may kill me for sayin but he has totally gotten into the Bachelorette! We will for sure be watching the Guys tell all and the finale at my house!
