The Hubster

Some of you might know that every two years there is a Rasmussen Reunion that involves my parents, their 9 children, and as of the latest count, their 42 grandchildren.  It. is. awesome.

At those reunions there is always a karaoke contest.  Much smack talk precedes the competition and also much practicing, keeping an ear out for that perfect song, and weeping and wailing about how the perfect song can't be found.  There was a lot of that last one at our house this year.  We had nothing for almost two years.  Two weeks ago I was feeling desperate.  I started listening to various songs on youtube and miraculously hit upon two ideas.  That night I ran my ideas past my husband.

He pondered.

Then, two nights later it was Friday.  Friday Night Date Night.  It was one of the best dates of my life.  My hubby took one of my two lackluster ideas and with a little bit of help from me, turned one of the ideas into something amazing.  Fantastic.  Awesome.  Inspired.  He is so ridiculously talented.  I wish I could tell you all the details of just what he did that night but I can't.  Not until after the contest.

I would claim that we had first place in the bag but I thought that last reunion and the competition was so stiff we didn't even place.  :(  BUT--we were awesome and that is what truly counts.  Plus, Lindsay and Sterling's number blew everyone out of the water.  Can't wait to see what everyone comes up with this year!!!!!

A little nostalgia for you:
