To see this:
And these two talented boys:
And caught a glimpse of all of these huligans:
Which is one of the very few reasons why I could possibly like living here:
At about 3:25 Seth emailed me a link to last minute american idol tickets. We signed up MONTHS ago, and when we signed up I kept saying "wouldn't it be cool if our batch was the last batch that gets to go to the finale?" Well...we were!! Last last last last minute. We had to be there by 4:15 PM to pick up the tickets. I had to get from point A to point B:

which is about 14.8 miles in Los Angeles Traffic. Ohhh so of course I got permission from work, wrapped a few things up, and went on my adventure in the car!
Thanks to directions from Heathy & Seth, and encouragement and excitement from the Parentals, I made it to the theater, and we were able to park right next to the theater so i wouldn't have to walk very far (still kind of on light bedrest...). We made it we made it!! (Okay, so seth picked up the tickets and I maybe didn't make it until 4:25, but still it was a Los Angeles Miracle! AND, there was another earthquake while I was driving, which makes traffic worse for some reason...so it REALLY was a miracle!)
We got into the theater and were on cloud 9! It's so cool! The music was thumping, and while I'm still never sure if I have gas or if the baby is moving, I'm pretty sure our little fetus leapt in the womb as we sat down in our seats. Seth said he/she is a little rocker and was banging on the drums already :) Our seats were the 2nd row on the balcony, which was a perfect view--far enough removed that i could stay seated and close enough to see everyone!
As you can probably tell from my writing, I'm still on cloud 9, and still just so excited. Once in a lifetime experience!! AND, Seth still made it to Bishopric meeting!! Gotta love it People, Gotta love it!

Wow! We just saw some of the highlights from the show. I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU WERE THERE! I just asked Wade if he could guess who got to go to that and he said, "Jane!" I just showed him a couple of the numbers earlier today and he agreed that he would have loved it. Wow!
How exciting! That is so fun! I just read your earthquake post too...glad you survived! :)
Dear Jane and Seth,
I need to learn to go to your blog more often. (This is my second time and the first was before you were married. I can't believe you were able to be at American Idol! I am excited even though this is past history! Did you get any pictures of you there? Well, it is past my bedtime so I will say goodnight. We love you dear Jane. I voted for a girl because Aunt Barb said so, but just in case I sent you guys a Tiger by the Tail baby outfit so in case it is a boy, he won't think his favorite Grandma doesn't love him. (PS...I know your mom will be his other favorite grandma and I am willing to share that position.
Love, Gina/Mom
