A bunch of Idle Americans!

So tonight was the big Kimball family A.I. party! The rules were that you were not allowed to talk during the show as the Kimballs are serious about American idol. I grilled the rules over and over into my kids heads as we headed over that they were actually a little scared of Amy by the time we got there. :0)
With reason - once we got inside I watched the drama unfold. A house full of people and crazy kids - TONS of big talkers (myself included) and jelly beans flying threw the air as Amy tried to hit people with them to quiet them up!
Needless to say, everyone had fun and we all finally got the chatting out of our systems to see David cook win!!! Thanks Scott and Amy - Good times!Mike's head was in a different game!
Amy and the girls
Melissa, Me, Annie, Gigi, Brooke, Lynn, Cara, and Amy
Amy was mean - I must say! She was all business! And man, can she ever throw a jelly bean!
Caitlin, Ashlyn, Maddie, and Maddie
The host and hostess
Annie and Chris
The whole chatterbox gang!

HEATHER...I am still picking up jelly beans off the floor. Okay, for the record, I went through approximately 50 jelly beans...not eaten, but flying through the air tagging people who were disrupting and disobeying the rules.

Despite the chaos, we wouldn't have done it any differently & fully enjoyed the company of our yacky friends!!! The highlight of the night for me came later, when Gigi forgot Hunter and left him at our house. It's a great story...I'll fill you in later:-)

It was a lot of fun, even though we were completely busted for talking all the time. Amy and Scott were great hosts. I can't believe how many people showed up, and how good of Amy it was to have us all at her house with out kids. Way to go Amy. We should do it again for Big Brother, JK.

Just a great group of friends. No matter what we are doing we have tons of fun. Thanks to Amy and American Idol for giving us an excuse to have a party!
