What is going on with flights? Jason had to emergency land in Raleigh on the morning of our Jacksonville show. He was bringing Mags home for her Thanksgiving Feast (big deal at preschool) Then he was rerouted all day and finally missed the final connection to make it in time for the show and so, we didn't get to play. I was basicaly without a voice at that point anyway but it was a total bummer-considering we drove all the way from Nashville to Jacksonvile Beach and then turned around and headed back 6 hours in the exact reverse direction.


Mags loves seeing her name everywhere we go in the South. On our extended drives, we see "Magnolia" quite often.
The day before she left, Mags laid a serious guilt trip on me by asking why I wasnt coming to her Thanksgiving Feast. The school changed the date on us after we booked the tour so I couldn't go (unless I wanted to fly home with June too, just for 3 hours and then fly back to tour the next morning)
It was the first time I ever felt like a working mother who couldn't make one of my kids events. It will never happen again. It sucked having her say, "Why don't you just call another band and have them play the concert and you can take me to my party." I cried. (even though she's totally over it now and happy to take my mom-her fav person) I am SO fighting the guilt days later.
At least she got to be with us for the majority of this leg of tour. She was even there when we filmed a thing for ABC news with Dan Harris. They followed us around for a couple of days. I'm so afraid I'm gonna look like a lazy mom since I was so tired for a lot of it. I think it's gonna air this weekend on Good Morning America and maybe the nightly news? But I'm not sure. We'll update our sites when we know.

BTW-we have an awesome new nanny, Julia, whom we met at Yo Gabba Gabba so every night she has been telling Mags Yo Gabba stories. Mags loves it. They sing the songs daily. She got to wear one of DJ Lance's hats (Julia does the costumes for the show and she's also the one who does Geela-one of my favorite ETSY stops)
More on our craziness the next time I have a good wireless connection..seriously considering Twitter.
