Last week, I took the children to Legoland. We had such a fun filled day, and the kids were happy to spend the day with friends, too. I was surprised that the lines were not that long, and the weather was wonderful. Of course, I took lots of snapshots! However, the highlight, was what occurred at the end of the day.
We left the park at closing, and decided to have dinner at Outback. (my children love this restaurant) As we were seated, I glanced at the booth across from us. I glanced, and then glanced back down at the menu. However, I immediately glanced again, and realized it was American Idol Contestant, Aaron Kelly seated across from us!! We are big fans of American Idol! Aaron Kelly was one of our favorites! I cannot remember how many times Gabriela voted for him.(I did like Big Mike, too) So I asked my friend, Robbie, if it was really Aaron Kelly??? If I remember correctly, she did ask them. LOL Aaron was having dinner with his mom, and brother. Robbie, asked if he would not mind taking a few snapshots with our girls. At this point, the girls are besides themselves. They were giggling, and in disbelief. (Pretty much the reaction you would expect of little girls!) We did not want to cause more commotion, so we waited until he was ready to leave, and took a few snapshots outside!
Aaron was very gracious, and ever so polite. He answered all of the children's questions, and signed autographs! (I got one too!!) He was here visiting his brother, and getting ready for the summer tour. He did tell me he will be working on a Country Album! I was excited to hear this, because I am a Country girl at heart!
Here is Aaron Kelly with one of his biggest fans:
Snapshot of Aaron and Roman:
At this point, Roman just thought he was cool! (Check out his expression.....priceless) Aaron signed Roman's flip flop!! Really????
It was a fantastic ending to such a great day spent with fabulous friends, fabulous rides, and lots of laughter!!! This is one day the kids will not forget!!!
Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you are enjoying your evening! I am off to get ready for the Midnight Showing of Twilight!!
Smiles,
