but, I'm going to tell it anyways.
Sometimes dance competitions can be long. Some last two days, some even start out on a Friday evening and then continue on to Saturday and Sunday. A few weekends ago, KAR was four days. It started on Thursday. Fortunately I only had to be there, starting Saturday and ended on Sunday. Holly and Mike, they had to be there starting on Thursday. Holly and Mike, are two of Kassie's dance teachers. They go and support all of the dancers.
Let's just say, that by Sunday we were all pretty tired, and can you say delirious from watching so many dances. Kai had performed her solo in the morning, and had left her trophies, her ribbon and her hat from Locomotion in the front seat. Holly, Mike and I decided to go get some coffee, so we headed to Starbucks. We ended up going through the drive thru. When Mike got in my car, he just randomly had one of the trophies in his hand. The girl at Starbucks saw the trophy and asked "Cool trophy, what did you win?" Now, I could have said, "It's my daughters, she won it at a dance competition." But, I was tired and feeling kind of silly, so I said "Oh, It's his, and HE won it dancing at a dance competition." she smiled and said "Congratulations" Mike just nodded. She went to check on our drinks. He then grabbed the second trophy and put it on his lap. When she came back, I said "Look, he won two". Again, she smiled and Mike nodded. He then grabbed the ribbon and put it around his neck and held it up. When she turned around, I said, "Look, he won a ribbon too!" Again, Mike just nodded, never said a word. He just showed off his prizes. I think she was starting to think that something was wrong with him. She gave a nervous little laugh this time. At this point, I was laughing so hard and Holly was laying down on the back seat just laughing. She grabbed Kassie's hat and put it on Mike and he stretched his leg to touch the ceiling of my car. And this is what the poor Starbucks girl saw when she turned around to hand me our drinks..................................

She was speechless and I couldn't even talk. It was hilarious! So again, maybe you had to be there, but it's one night I will never forget.
