There once was a boy named Caleb, and a girl named Jodi. Of course, this story doesn't start out that way but its cute right?
For our SUPER FRIEND Kristy's birthday, we all went to Disneyland for the week end just before Christmas. We drove to Anaheim, California in a giant Mormon bus and spent all day Saturday at Disney. Once in the park, the thirteen of us trampled the park, hollering at each employee with a legible name tag, singing songs and running from ride to ride. I got lost a guesstimate of twelve times, rode thunder mountain about twenty times and splash mountain approximately six. If you know me in the slightest bit, you'll know that Disney truly IS my happiest place on earth. Making this story even more amazing, in walks our SUPER FRIEND Caleb. The day was progressing, while in line at Fronteirland, Caleb looks at me, pats my stomach and says "honey can you ride this one?" indicating a small being within my gut. Playing along I name the bastard James. Throughout the rest of the day we played pretend and made some friends. At the close of each Disney day is a spectacular firework show and at Christmas time, they have pretend snow. In the height of this romantic scene, fireworks a burst, fake snow a falling, Caleb gets down on one knee and proposes a fake marriage. We are among a giant crowd, and as I look around, this crowd is staring directly at me. The man in front of me taps his woman on the shoulder gesturing in my direction. She starts to cry and I share in their enchanting moment. I conclude with an abounding yes and we make off to "its a small world". Everyone watching our every move, we'd achieved the desired reaction from our Disney audience. We continue on, as we are about to leave this Disneyland dream day, Caleb stands in front of the giant Christmas tree on main street Disney. He gets down on one knee again and proposes yet another fake marriage. This time, our audience has tripled. Folks are videotaping, girls are gasping and awing at this fairy-tale scene, and I the gushing fake bride to be am awestruck by the romantic man below me. Again I answer yes and we, the happy couple, walk off famously. This fake romance later turned into a real life romance minus the baby.
