First, as we were waiting for our table, we ran into what is possibly Montclair's only real live cowboy.
The picture is kind of dark, but we had to be discreet about taking it. Katie and I posed as Rachel pretended to take a picture of us. As you can see, he's wearing a belt with a big ol' buckle, a full length (and I mean FULL length) Western-y coat, boots and the fabulous cowboy hat complete with its own little rain coat! Now, I got used to seeing these types of ensembles in Texas, but it's not exactly what you expect to see in Montclair!!We got to our table, and perused the menu. The entire time we were there, Rachel tried to catch the attention of the balloon animal maker guy...but no luck! He did make balloon tiaras for a table of women right across from us. I think, deep down, he knew we already had our own diamond tiaras waiting for us at home and didn't want to waste his time.
Possibly one of the biggest laughs of the night came right after we ordered. A table of people near us got up to leave and our table was in the pathway. Before we knew it there was a rather large male rear-end practically sitting on our table. I think he was trying to get out of the way or something, but his butt was right in our faces, and it seemed to last forever! Writing this out isn't as funny as it actually was. Rachel may need to post her version as a comment so you can laugh too!
After dinner, we went to play glow in the dark miniature golf, which was enjoyable. Among the highlights were Rachel's hole-in-one, didgeridoo music, me teaching the girls baton twirling with my club, helping a very traumatized lost little girl and singing 80s songs on the bridge.
After golf, we played a little skee ball. OK, more than a little, 15 tokens worth for me. I LOVE that game! I was sad I didn't get to see Katie, Rachel and Heather playing Dance Dance Revolution, but maybe next time. You know I'm never getting on that thing!

It is no exaggeration to say that it may have been the World's Largest Behind. And it was clad in grey sweat pants. And it was practically resting on our table approximately 10 inches from our faces for what seemed to be a year and a half. I'm so grateful our food wasn't on the table yet because he would have been sitting in and I would have thrown up. But instead I just laughed and laughed.
And the highlight of the night for me was definitely Laura's baton twirling. Apparently disco golfing brings the best out in her.
Let's not forget that Laura even shimmied on the bridge. It was a great night for you, let's be honest! Baton twirling was definitely my favorite, it just came out of nowhere. You're the greatest!
HAHAHA!!! I'm laughing at my desk, and trying to keeep my smile in check as I answer the phone-- the WLB (World's Largest Behind) was seriously there blocking the width of the table and practically sitting there. The best part of it is that Rachel was telling a story or something when all of a sudden the WLB appeared! And she just stopped talking...and there was confused silence at our table until it had left and was around the corner...and then we all broke out in giggles...good times. :-)
But I agree with Rachel and Katie--the highlight of my night was the Baton twirling that came from no where. Thank's Laura--we'll have to try cosmic bowling and see what you come up with!
