Grandpa got tickets for Lindsey to see the 3D movie of Hannah Montana in concert. He bought two, one for her and a parent. This was purchased in December (all showings are sold out already now) All along I thought it would be who would take her to the movie. I can admit I like Hannah Montana (or Han tanna as the twins call her). Besides we could use some mother and daughter positive time together. So tonight Alan tells her he would be happy to take her. She is suddenly in a quandary and does not want to hurt either of us. No matter how much we both reassured her that it was o.k. to choose the other she seemed worried. So she did what only Lindsey likes to do she made a good ol pro/con list. Here is how it read...
Mom
Not
1.She might get hyper.
2.If I said no she'll get sad.
3.She won't let me eat a lot of popcorn
Yes
1.She needs a break.
2.She might like to take me.
3.She was the one invited.
Dad
Not
1.Dad takes me to movies all the time.
2.It is a girl movie.
3.He might not like it.
Yes
1.He lets me eat lots of popcorn.
2.He lets me choose my drink (I don't let her have soda much).
3.He is super funny.
After the list was presented I figured I lost out. Until she pulled out the second list- she collected votes from her siblings.
Votes for Mom
Jake
Syd
Votes for Dad

I got a huge laugh over all this. Wish us luck tomorrow!

That's cute and very great thinking!
That is so funny. I hope you have a good time.
Hey
Sorry I didn't comment on the last one - I just got to your blog (we've had bronchitis and ear infections between the two boys this week...SO FUN!)
Congrats on getting to go to Hannah Montana. I've got to say that I would like to see that one (but have no little girls to take...) Have fun and give us the review!
PS- Are you going to let her eat more popcorn and pick her own drink now that you see it has such pull? LOL
Lucky you! It will be so fun for the two of you. Grace when yesterday with a bunch of friends and they even went to Macaroni Grill afterwards for dinner.....she had a BLAST!
What a cute story - I hope you have a great time - the both of you!! See you soon. Kellan
way fun! and how cute is that! love the pro/con list and the vote! she is a smarty. my kids went yesterday with grandma and they thought it was fabulous. i wanted to go too but had to watch my little kids since my hubby was out of town.
they thought it was pretty great.
this is hilarious. i'm glad my girls aren't in to hannah montana yet, we're broke enough as it is!
That list is cracking me up! Hope you have a great time today! I'll be waiting for the thumbs up/thumbs down movie review!

What a sweet heart! She wanted to not hurt anyone!!
I just looked at the tickets... $15!! Are you KIDDING ME? I think we will wait for the DVD to come out. That girl needs to stop charging so much for her tickets all the way around.
I love that she made a pro/con list! And lucky you that you won! Have fun...maybe you both should splurge and have a big tub of popcorn:)
Great list! You'll have to let us know what you think? EMma wants to see it too.
Love this! It is so cute and smart how she came to her final decision. She is very diplomatic! Have fun at the show!
How cute and smart is she. I love it. I am a huge list maker too :) Hope you enjoyed the concert. And maybe even let Lindsey eat some extra popcorn.
That made me smile! What a thinker she is and getting votes! How funny :)
