The bachelorette party was one week before the wedding and it was at our house. Heath took Jens to a ball game with Ben and the ladies started showing up. We had good food, good drinks, good people, and secret entertainment!
My good friend Shellie had this idea to have a friend of hers, Shannon, who writes music, write a song for me and Heath and perform it at the bachelorette party. Of course he protested but Shellie is pretty pursuasive! He showed up much later in the evening when the fun was getting underway and I was told there was a stripper at the door. It is all on video but I will save that for special requests. Basically I was very confused and once I saw him and his guitar on the front step I realized he wasn't there to strip and maybe he was going to play some music. So naturally I asked him if he could do Michael Jackson.
Before you watch the video you may want to know a little side story to the choice of lyrics. You see, Heath first decided he was going to marry me about 5 years ago when we went out for a night on the town with our friend Reed. Heath was nice enough to finish my drink for me at the end of the night and paid for it later. So while he was in the bathroom haveing a serious conversation with God, I layed down on the floor beside the door to make sure he was ok.
A couple other things: Our new house is in Smithville, and we don't fight much but when we do it is usually about cleaning.
Here are the lyrics:Sometimes you’ll argue
like a game of cat and mouse,
It may be nothing more than
whose gonna cleaning the house.
But when the yellins done,
you’ll go back for more, Of that hot,
hot loving on the bathroom floor
It was a match made in heaven
This was meant to be
He had too much to drink
But wasn’t in there to pee
And you, you were waiting
patiently all night outside the door
When you fell in love…
On the bathroom floor
You’ll stand by your man
when the going gets tough.
And, when you start your own business,
know it’s gonna be rough.
But if you love him, support him,
and just sit back and chill.
You could be fighting about
whose cleaning your new house in Smithville
It was a match made in heaven
This was meant to be
He had too much to drink
But wasn’t in there to pee
And you, you were waiting
patiently all night outside the door
When you fell in love…
On the bathroom floor
We know you’ll stay together
‘til you’re old and gray
You'll stand by each other
baby come what may.
But if it doesn’t work out
and you say goodbye,
We’re thinking Tanner maybe might be your guy.
It was a match made in heaven
This was meant to be
He had too much to drink
But wasn’t in there to pee
And you, you were waiting
patiently all night outside the door
When you fell in love… On the bathroom floor
Thank you ladies for a great night! :)
