Speaker 1 (00:01):
Wind Down with Janet Kramer and I'm Heeart Radio Podcast. Hello,
happy post, fourth of July.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Hi guys, my remote location.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
I know we're all on remote. Sorry, I'm still at
the lake, which is why I look like I just
I look like a wet rag.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
You actually just look like a postcard from the lake.
I'm here for it exactly.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
Yeah. No, how is everyone's fourth?
Speaker 3 (00:27):
Mine was just super simple, easy, we just had. It
was kind of sad though, because you know, Cayden's gone,
you know, he's not He's never home anymore, and you know,
so that was kind of sad.
Speaker 4 (00:38):
So it was just me Cayden and no Me, Nick
and Ramsey.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
So we just kind of did some fireworks and just
kept it super simple at home.
Speaker 4 (00:47):
How about you, Kabe?
Speaker 2 (00:48):
I think my heart got broken forth of July. Guys,
what happened? Well, I'm good. I'm being dramatic about that.
So before everybody comes, I mean, this is so I know,
but I have to lead with like I need to
remind everyone like I did go like for broadcasting, so
I do love like a little lake.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Well that's what people.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Yeah, so I know I'm saying that very dramatic. And
then what I'm about to say is not going to
feel that dramatic. But this is the first fourth of
July that Love wanted to watch fireworks with her friends.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Oh I love that.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
And it was weird, like we of course just stayed
in our neighborhood, which is like the easiest. I actually
it's becoming a little bit of a tradition and I
kind of like it because, you know, then I can
get a baby to sleep, and I'm I can watch
all the fireworks from my front porch, which is just
hashtag blessed, you know. But she was like, Mom, I
really want to go over to the Green Space and
watch the fireworks with my friends and these moms I
(01:40):
love and trust, which is big for me. And I said, well, okay,
yeah for sure. And then it was like Leggie and
out I out there doing a Sparkler, and I just
had this moment where I was like, I'm okay, right,
like I'm already I'm already coming into the fourth feeling
a certain way. And then Love is out just living
her best life. She's literally a block over. I know,
the psychopath, but it just really got me. I thought, man,
(02:03):
I actually thought of you, Kat, because I thought this
is so what you're used to, like you're in the
teenage years, you know, like I hear about it and listen,
this is nothing, and I know it's like so minuscule,
but I just it's the first fourth that she hasn't
watched fireworks with me, and I just had a minute like,
as my heart broke, do I need to I probably
(02:24):
just need to take magnesium and go to bed. So
that's what I did.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
Well, It's interesting because it kind of started with fourth
of July for us, So that's why I starting the
year after fifth grade with Emmy. That's why we started
having the party at our house because she wanted to
watch them with her friends. So we started having the
party at our house every year. But then now it's
kind of morphed, you know, like the parties are a
little bit different. They're getting a little bit older, you know,
(02:47):
so it was kind of one of those she didn't
even know what she was doing until like two days before,
you know, like who's how she was going to what
she was doing? And then Ramsey was kind of well
what about me? And I was like, well, why don't
we start yours next year? We'll start having your parties
at our house next year. So that's why it's kind
of for whatever reason out and if it's the summer
as they really grow up, you know, when they really
(03:07):
get older and then they it just started with Fourth
of July for us too, it's always.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
Kind of I don't know why, but.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
I feel like that's Halloween for me. I feel like, see,
that's that started for Halloween, do you know what I mean?
The first time my kids like, oh wait, you don't
want to trick or treat with us, It's like no,
they want to go off with their friends. So I
feel like that was that was kind of our very
far thing because for fourth like we're always gone, so
it's a little it's a little different for us because
(03:34):
we don't stay home. So I feel like that's kind
of like the equivalent for us for Halloween.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Well in our true fashion. I like that we're not
at the same time, so we can dig each other
out of emotional turmoil. So I'll take over Fourth of
July and you can dig me out, and then I'll
see you at Halloween. I'll dig you out.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
I'm good though, Like I you know what I mean.
I think it's like I think it's a beautiful thing.
Like to see them. I know it's still hard, but
like it's so great to watch them run off and
have fun.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
I know, it's just bitterswee parenthood. Yeah, like if you're
doing it well, this is what they do. But if
you're doing it well, then you're also going wait, I'm
down a little headcount, and I don't like it.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
I know.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
I was reading a book to Roman the other night
and it was all about the last. It was actually
it was a Karen Kingsbury book. It's a She's got
to tell their book out and it was all about
like soaking in because I don't know when and it'll
be the last, like the last that you do this
or the last time you do this. And so I
swear Roman and I sang songs for like twenty minutes
because I'm like, one day he's not going to be
(04:30):
singing the song because he's just growing up so fast.
I mean, and all the kids are too, you know.
I mean even on the lake. Jolie's got her sweet
little lake friends, which I love, so does Jace, and
you know, she's like, I'm just gonna go paddle over there.
I'm like, do you want to paddle board with mama
and she's like no, She's like, I want to go
over to my friends. I'm like, okay, Like so it
does like it is changing. But it's great though too,
Like I love that they have the sweetest little community
(04:53):
here to like hang with, makes it better.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
It's just such a sweet stage. Like I love it too,
Like I probably enjoy this stage the most. Yeah, but
it's like you said, it's still bittersweet. It's still you know,
like you know, Kate, And I'm like I definitely had
that moment of oh my god, this is our last summer. Well,
I mean we'll have next summer right before he goes
to college. But I'm just like, what is happening? How
(05:16):
did we get here?
Speaker 1 (05:18):
I feel so old, i know, and.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Like he's just been gone for like two weeks, you know,
and he does that a lot in the summer.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
But I'm just like it just hit me. I was
just like I love this stage.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
But I'm like, oh my gosh that it just comes
to this like abrupt end, Like now I just have
to send them off next year.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
I mean, the last time the kids come to the
lake because they're going to go to college, I'll be
probably a mess or when they don't want to come
to the lake.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
So hard.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
I'm sure they'll want to come to the lake though,
And I just keep telling myself they'll want to come
home for summers, right, I mean, I guess you never know.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
You just assume, but you never know. They may just
want to stay.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
I don't know, Oh Cat, I couldn't do it. I
actually don't know how we're going to do it. I
remember when Preston and I talked about, like we were
just chatting, like would we you know, because I think
going to college now is not as common, Like I
don't think that the pressure to go to college directly
out of high schools is as common as it used
to be. And yeah, and I like that, like, I
(06:14):
you know, the savings we've set up for the kids
are just like this really like little nest egg that
they could have whatever they choose to do after they
leave the house. And then Preston's like, wait, she never
has to leave the house. And I thought, she's not
gonna live with us forever. And then he said, is
there like daddy daughter dorm options somewhere? And I was like,
don't be a creep, Like it's just wild. I mean
(06:35):
even with our oldest being that we have eight more summers.
That's just really hard for me to even digest.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
And Cat's down to one, y'all.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
Oh, I mean that's the thing that's what hit me
on for the July. I was like, it's just us three,
like like, wait, this is crazy. I know, it's it's
it's just too much on at.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Is there anything that you feel like you would have
done different if you being in the position that you
are now, like knowing that you're down to like a
final summer, Is there anything that you and Nick would
have done differently in the summers or is there something
you wish you know? Like you I think we all
hear from a lot of like really great moms that
have gone before us on Instagram or in our own worlds,
(07:18):
and they're always saying, soak it up, soak it up.
It goes by fast, and we know that. But like,
is there anything sitting in your seat now that you
wish you could share with us? At least?
Speaker 4 (07:28):
You know, I definitely say travel.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
Travel as a family, we're decent at it, you know,
I could do I would love to do it more.
But that is definitely kind of my number one I
like to give advice like travel as a fly, what.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
About financial means? So like give us an example, like
getting in the car, like you guys go to the
car to the beach, right.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
Yeah, we do.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
And you know, listen, would Nick look at that and
say differently? Maybe he may say, I wish we traveled
less so we had more money in our account, you know,
I you know, I don't. I would love to ask
him that, but that's just really important to me. And
you know, there's a lot of money that's not in
sitting in our account for retirement because we have chosen
to travel. And he sees how important that is to
me and has really but yeah, I mean we you know,
(08:10):
the family of five growing up, I also was in
a family of five and we never traveled well, we
weren't flying five of us.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
I mean that's a fortune, all right, so expensive?
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Yeah, so yeah, I mean getting in the car and driving,
you know, is is really important.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
And that's I mean granted gas prices are high and
that gets expensive.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Too, but you know, and just finding ways to do
it then, you know, the most affordable. We'll just you know,
for Christmas, like you know, we just went to Gatlinburg
real fast. And it wasn't an expensive you know, we
just really kept the expenses down. We just did it
small and just hung out together, you know, just to
get out of here, because when you're at home, they
get to the ages, y'all are starting to see they
(08:49):
all go their separate ways, you know, and so it's
not until you really get out of that and you
that they really spend the time together. And it's interesting
because lately, actually Kate and said something to me before
we left town. He was like, hey, I was taking
him to dinner, just me and him. He's like, are
the girls coming? And I was like, well, Ramsey's at
a friend's house and let me go check with Emmy.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
She's got a friend over. And he's like, oh, I
thought Emmy was coming.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
And I was like, he's not one to usually be like,
you know, really like aren't they coming?
Speaker 4 (09:16):
You know, like not in a bad way. He just
doesn't care.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
And he's like, well, you know, I know, Emmy really
wants to like have a closer relationship with me. And
I was like oh, and he was like, you know,
she mentioned that to his girlfriend. They're you know, Emmy's
also friends with her. And he was like, what am
I doing wrong, and like I know, it like broke
my heart. And I was like, buddy, you're not doing
anything wrong. She just really loves you and she really
(09:40):
looks up to you. And I think the girls are
realizing you're going to college soon and like they're emotional
about that, you know. And he's like, Okay, I just
you know, I just want to make sure I'm not
doing that. I was like, no, like, y'all have a
great relationship. And then I told her and then she's like, oh,
I feel terrible. He thinks like he hasn't done anything wrong.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
I just you know. So it's all kind of hitting
all of us, you know, and that weird way, is.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
There times when he's not with like when y'all came here,
Like is there times where like the girlfriend doesn't come
so that way like they can have more time together.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Or like she that's really the only time she has
oh really, So anytime we vacationed, she's never come, got it.
Speaker 4 (10:16):
So she's only spent one night.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
She did one night at the lake with our family
at one point, and then one night at the lake
with y'all.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
That's another thing that I'm like, not, no, Like I
don't know where I'm ready for that yet, because I'm like, okay,
that was going to be my question of high school.
Like I back in our day, like I was never
allowed to go on a vacation with my high school
sweetheart because like you just there's no way, like even
if you sleep in different rooms, like there's that was
(10:45):
just like a huge no. I mean we weren't even
allowed to be downstairs pretty much by ourselves.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Yeah, you know, like I was quite prude back then,
so right, I love that back then.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
Then.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
I always love a juicy Kramer moment. You guys, I
did on vacations with my boyfriend, and I you I did,
and I will I will say maybe that was not
the smart as choice sometimes, but that family shaped who
I am so much that I can't imagine not sending
summers with them.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Maybe it'll get different when when they're older, but right now,
I'm like, there's no way that I could, Like I
feel like that's where I might be strict.
Speaker 4 (11:23):
Yeah maybe, And here's the thing, And it also is different.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
I hate to say this and I'm gonna get hate,
but it is different with the boy and the girl.
What do you mean I can't imagine letting Emmy do it.
But yeah, but like I think with me, granted, her
mom has not let her come for more than a day,
(11:47):
so that's another thing. Like I have we have invited
her for like an actual vacation, and that hasn't been
allowed yet.
Speaker 4 (11:53):
Having said that, she yes, stays in the room with
the girls. Excuse me, you know she's she was in.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
The room mc kayden slept in the pull out when
they came to the lake.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
Yeah, but like I still don't stress about it as
much with the boy as I know I will when
it's my girl again.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
Can you explain that to me? Because I don't like
I'm help me explain that one.
Speaker 4 (12:15):
I just hmm, I'm okay.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
Are you no, it's okay? Are you saying you don't worry?
Is it? Kat's like I'm in a bear trap and
I went out. Are you saying, like to send Emmy
off to a boyfriend's vacation or are you saying to
have a boyfriend with Emmy on your vacation or both?
Speaker 4 (12:36):
I would have the boyfriend on vacation with us.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Before you would send her off.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
That I'd send her off.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
Yeah, I think a it's I don't trust other people.
I mean, I've even been told that I'm way stricter
because like I don't let them in the bedrooms, you know,
do you know, especially with dors closed, but like all
the things, and I'm apparently the only he doesn't even care.
It doesn't bother him in the least. He's fine with
that role. But he I'm like the only one that
(13:01):
has that rule. I mean, even Emmy's age, people are
letting the girls and boys hang out bedrooms and stuff,
and like, I just don't allow that. And so when
I think about her going off with and maybe it's
someone I really trust and I know they have really
strict rules, but it just feels different. And again I
think they respect my rules, but I don't know. I
(13:23):
just he's not going to be going anywhere with her.
Probably they have like five kids and it's just a
you know, a zoo and all the things. So I know,
with him and it's always at my house, she would
come with us. I know my rules. I know I'm
paying attention, so maybe it's more that. But also let's
just be honest. And I think other people would hopefully
give me some feedback on this for some reason when
(13:45):
they get this age and you're worried about sex. You
don't worry as much about your boy as you do
your girl.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
It just it just is.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
And I don't know if it's because the girl can
end up pregnant at the end of the day and
then you're the I like you just do ask other moms.
Speaker 4 (14:00):
I promise I'm not the only one.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
I mean, we have conversations about sex all the time,
you know, we talk about things like that, but like,
I don't know what it is.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
It just feels different with the girl.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Do y'all know that I had the conversation with Jolie
the birds and the bees, uh huh. But we'll talk
about it when we're all together. So we'll pin that
one because I have to just tell you how that went.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Uh, Kramer, you never told us about your fourth. I
want to know how your fourth was. It's your first
Lake fourth.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
It was the first Lake fourth. I will say I
woke up on the fourth. Well, first of all, Cat,
thanks for sharing all that. Oh yeah, because there's a
lot to deep dive into that, and I'm excited as
we age into that range yep, like just on a
side barley. I don't even let Jolie sleep over at
someone's house if they have older brothers, not because I
don't trust the older brothers or the parents. I just
(15:03):
don't like.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
I just don't.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
I think that's fair. I've had that conversation with lots
of people.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
But anyways, No, the fourth I woke up a little
sad just the in the morning, just because the only
other Fourth that we haven't I haven't spent up north
was our wedding week because we were going to Scotland,
so I had to have you know, I had to
give Mike the kids and then with just there. It
would have been way too much travel to do Fourth
of July and then fly to Scotland. So I think
(15:31):
there was just a tinge of missing, like my my cousin.
My cousin's wife sent me a picture of being like
we miss you guys, and they're on there. You know
my Grandma's nineteen ninety you know pontoon that I loved
and grew up on, and you know my my grandma
and the photos with my mom and you know my
aunts and uncles and so because it's just so much
fun when all my aunts and uncles get together. But
(15:55):
as much as I like, I missed and was sad,
and the moment I had like the most incredible fourth
It was so much fun. We have such an amazing
little cove of friends and neighbors that we've met. They're
so sweet. The kids are all around the same age.
There's no one in Roman's age, but Roman just is
like I'm swimming to my friends, like he's just just yeah,
(16:18):
he's out there right now. I see them over there,
but yeah, it's just it was great. And then T
and T sent us like this enormous amount of fireworks.
I was just like, hey, you know, we're gonna put
on a little firework show. And then they just send
all these fireworks, I mean, and an Alan was down
at the dock and lighting the fireworks, and all the
neighbors came over and the kids with the sparklers, and
obviously I invited y'all, but I know that you guys
(16:40):
had your other plans. But it was it was so great,
and it was just a good first memory to make
for sure, Like zero, it was just it was good.
And maybe one day, you know, we might go back
up there at some point, but we are just loving
it here so much. That and the memories that we're
making so and you're posting in laws in yeah, and
(17:01):
they it was so funny because his dad, you know,
first thing he said in the morning was the happy
fourth of July, you know, and he was wearing his
little Fourth of July shirt and doing sparklers for the
first time. And it was really sweet to kind of
watch them because this is their first Fourth of July
they've ever celebrated, so that's the first time they've ever
seen it. And I mean there was just fireworks going
(17:22):
off everywhere on the lake.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
It was just it was so cool. We should have
had them on to see to interview like a first
time Fourth of July or like, what's your impression of
what as you guys we're all doing the American things,
but like I can't imagine coming coming and visiting. I like,
I'm I'm sorry, what is hot dogs? Macaroni salad?
Speaker 4 (17:45):
Fireworks?
Speaker 1 (17:46):
Everyone just like screaming, and yeah, I mean it was
And then our neighbor or one of our lake neighbors
was like, Hey, at the very end of fireworks, do
you think your husband would yell freedom was no, he didn't,
but it was we got a good laugh out of
it at least, So it was fun. No, but it's
been great.
Speaker 5 (18:04):
It's been it's been really good.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Who's got a whine about it? I think I kind
of did that. I'll say getting older sucks. I'm gonna
put I'm just gonna say that. I am really struggling
and it almost can make me emotional. I'm not gonna cry,
but when I think about it, I went out on
the jet ski and I hurt my neck. You guys,
(18:39):
a couple of weeks ago from sleeping wrong on a
freaking pillow, a pillow like, I had a kink in
my neck for oh, I couldn't move my neck for
like a week, and then it got worse worse, No,
I'm serious, worse, and it finally got better. And so
I'm like so excited because one of our neighbors has
got a wake boat and he's like, hey, I'm gonna
(19:00):
pick you up this morning to go wake surfing. I'm like, great,
I can't wait. My daughter was going, you know, take
take her skiing, which she tried this morning.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
It was great.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
And but yesterday I hit a wave or whatever on
the on the lake in the jet ski, and my
neck is so messed up that I woke up in
the middle of the night and I had to take
a muscle relaxer because I had some here the last
time I hurt my neck, and I'm like, this sucks.
Like I'm just like this sucks, and it's it makes
(19:30):
me angry that I'm like, I can't go out on
lake because I can barely. I'm like, can barely move
my damn neck.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
That's like, I think it's so funny because I, you know,
I make everything in my life a Saturday Night Live
skit when it's been worked out, and I just see you,
like hot Jana in a bikini with a neck brace
on your jet ski. But you guys, that's it, do
you know? Okay, So I'm trying to be careful because
I don't know if these people listen. So I oh,
the things I want to say that can't say because
(20:00):
I know people I know I know and I don't.
This isn't. This is not by any means, Like I
absolutely adore these people, so it's not. I just have
come to the two year point of getting older. I
need sleep. I've never been a person that needs a
lot of sleep. I just never have. I am a
rock star. I did eight jobs in college. I got
up at four am to do the radio. The morning
show on the radio could rock it out in the
(20:22):
last two years, like sleep is such a necessity that
I it has to be getting older and the balancing
the hormones or whatever. Like tonight, my husband wants to
have our neighbors over to watch the soccer game. Guys,
it starts at seven. I'm like, there's no way everyone's
out of here by eight thirty or nine, and so
what am I gonna do? So what am I going?
Speaker 5 (20:45):
Like?
Speaker 3 (20:46):
Am I what have what turned into eight or nine?
Speaker 1 (20:50):
What I'm like?
Speaker 2 (20:51):
Also, decoy shoes are set out, take those off? You
out of here by nine? Like who am I? I know
I'm impossible, and I I don't want to be I
want to be fun. I like I used to be
so fun. God, I was so fun.
Speaker 5 (21:04):
I know it sulls.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
It literally sucks, like I was as I'm watching Jolie ski,
I'm like, I want to be skiing too, Like I
want to be out there and I literally can't because
I am one wrong move away from a full on
next fasm.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
I wanted to too, but when we were there, but
I was like, I'm actually scared I.
Speaker 4 (21:23):
Will hurt myself and it's not going to be worth it,
so I didn't.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
I think what's hard is like for us, I feel
like our brains and our bodies aren't matching. When does
that go away?
Speaker 4 (21:33):
Because we feel like we're still eighteen.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
Yeah, Like I actually did want to pajamas too. It's
like that would actually be fun because I well, as
long as she wasn't driving. But I was really like,
I was like, oh, if I hit that wrong, my
tailbone wrong, like I'm just out for like another you
know what's happening is this? I know this is the forties.
I hope not. And that's the thing.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Like even Dave who's driving, because he was like, Hey,
we're gonna go grab the wake boat.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
You want to go wake surf?
Speaker 1 (21:59):
I was like no, literally, if it's not my neck,
it's going to be my back and I can't do
it right, like I can't have both out at the
same time. But he's just like, you're too young, He's
how old are you? I going forty two? And he goes,
you're too young to be dealing with that. I go, no,
when I hit forty something, just like I don't know
if it was having a baby at the age I
did in my court going. I don't know, but it's
just that's my wine and I'm just it's frustrating me.
(22:19):
So any I don't know an advice, just don't do
stupid crab on a lake.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
I'm just trying to figure out I can kick people
out by night. I don't know what's going to happen here.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
Well, I'm very excited to get together again later this week.
We've got lots to chat about, lots lots and lots
of headlines to discuss. One huge one.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
A royal wedding of sorts has happened, and I am
living for the fashion of the guest list.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Oh did you see chrisa stunning Chris stunning?
Speaker 2 (22:58):
No, all of them. I mean I saw Lennan Doyle
and Abby like I which, by the way, her caption genius.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Oh they looked so great. So did Haley and Becca
Yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Like her message was cute and she said love your
retired GYM teacher and your retired English teacher. I was like,
so cute. Yeah, I just am like living for it.
I also really wildly respect somehow the privacy of how
they're keeping it so private. It's so it's just epic.
(23:30):
I mean, we're never I has there ever been a
wedding MSG, I don't think so. I mean this is.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
There's been a couple. I looked it up. Okay, there's been.
Well i'd have to look back now, but okay there was.
I think there was like three or four from what
I saw.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
But yeah, I mean this is wild. Yeah, and a
lot of country music, like a lot of our friends went.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Which is Ballerini, Maren Morris, a little big town Miranda,
lots of singers and songwriters like it was wild.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
I mean it was just crazy. But I am guys,
I'm not super emotionally invested in Taylor other than my
daughter's a swiftie. But I'm emotionally invested a little bit
in this wedding, and I won't lie like I want
to know they've well done.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
I was actually surprised. I was kind of glued to
it as well. And it's not like me, but I
was definitely glued to it.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
I can't imagine how beautiful too.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
I still thought that it was not really the wedding.
So I was so invested because I mean, if you
look at like all like the tiktoks and stuff, people
were like they already got married. This is a label release,
this is your announcement.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Like people don't know anything. That's what's so so frustrating
for Like when people say things like even like on
these things, it's like they just they don't know, you know,
And I'd love that they kept it private.
Speaker 4 (24:43):
Yeah, you know, I was invested. I was like, it
really is the wedding.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
I also was like, can I get a copy of
the NDA. I'd love a copy of that NDA. Get
put from my own little world, because whatever is happening,
and you've taken like the most craziest of celebrities and
somehow kept everyone quiet, I need to know everything.
Speaker 5 (25:00):
What are they up to?
Speaker 1 (25:02):
Well, we will chat more about that later this week.
We've got obviously our new format coming and down this week.
So I love you, ladies. I'll see you later.
Speaker 4 (25:12):
In the week.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
And I love you guys so much.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
I love you.
Speaker 4 (25:16):
Be careful if you decide to wake board.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
There's no chance, Like I just I there's no chance.
But I am going to take the kids right now
to Cocktail Cove even though we don't drink, but we're
gonna That's so that's what that's what it's named Mocktail Cove. Yeah,
we are now Mocktail Cove. So yeah, yeah, oh you guys.
By the way, I probably shouldn't say.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
This, but my favorite sentences come after that. My father in.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
Law is rocking the speedo right now and it is
so great.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
It's euro time at the cocktail Cove. Banana hammocks are
among us.
Speaker 5 (25:56):
It is a sight to see.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
I just love it. Just I'm proud to do. I
just love it.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
They're just like living it up and it makes me.
It makes me so happy because I see Alan's heart,
like just having his family here, just it makes me
so happy.
Speaker 5 (26:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
I actually I've been paying attention to his faces and
like your pictures and just I mean it does it
just makes him so happy. It's his home. Home with
home is the perfect way.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
I recorded them last night while watching the England game.
Actually i'll probably post it because again had no clue
what his dad was saying, but I just keep smiling
and laughing. So we're going to go out there and
go float and mocktail COVID.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
So love it.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Fun, guys, I'll see you next week, Okay, bye bye
Wind Down with Janet Kramer and I'm Heeart Radio Podcast. Hello,
happy post, fourth of July.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Hi guys, my remote location.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
I know we're all on remote. Sorry, I'm still at
the lake, which is why I look like I just
I look like a wet rag.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
You actually just look like a postcard from the lake.
I'm here for it exactly.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
Yeah. No, how is everyone's fourth?
Speaker 3 (00:27):
Mine was just super simple, easy, we just had. It
was kind of sad though, because you know, Cayden's gone,
you know, he's not He's never home anymore, and you know,
so that was kind of sad.
Speaker 4 (00:38):
So it was just me Cayden and no Me, Nick
and Ramsey.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
So we just kind of did some fireworks and just
kept it super simple at home.
Speaker 4 (00:47):
How about you, Kabe?
Speaker 2 (00:48):
I think my heart got broken forth of July. Guys,
what happened? Well, I'm good. I'm being dramatic about that.
So before everybody comes, I mean, this is so I know,
but I have to lead with like I need to
remind everyone like I did go like for broadcasting, so
I do love like a little lake.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Well that's what people.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Yeah, so I know I'm saying that very dramatic. And
then what I'm about to say is not going to
feel that dramatic. But this is the first fourth of
July that Love wanted to watch fireworks with her friends.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Oh I love that.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
And it was weird, like we of course just stayed
in our neighborhood, which is like the easiest. I actually
it's becoming a little bit of a tradition and I
kind of like it because, you know, then I can
get a baby to sleep, and I'm I can watch
all the fireworks from my front porch, which is just
hashtag blessed, you know. But she was like, Mom, I
really want to go over to the Green Space and
watch the fireworks with my friends and these moms I
(01:40):
love and trust, which is big for me. And I said, well, okay,
yeah for sure. And then it was like Leggie and
out I out there doing a Sparkler, and I just
had this moment where I was like, I'm okay, right,
like I'm already I'm already coming into the fourth feeling
a certain way. And then Love is out just living
her best life. She's literally a block over. I know,
the psychopath, but it just really got me. I thought, man,
(02:03):
I actually thought of you, Kat, because I thought this
is so what you're used to, like you're in the
teenage years, you know, like I hear about it and listen,
this is nothing, and I know it's like so minuscule,
but I just it's the first fourth that she hasn't
watched fireworks with me, and I just had a minute like,
as my heart broke, do I need to I probably
(02:24):
just need to take magnesium and go to bed. So
that's what I did.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
Well, It's interesting because it kind of started with fourth
of July for us, So that's why I starting the
year after fifth grade with Emmy. That's why we started
having the party at our house because she wanted to
watch them with her friends. So we started having the
party at our house every year. But then now it's
kind of morphed, you know, like the parties are a
little bit different. They're getting a little bit older, you know,
(02:47):
so it was kind of one of those she didn't
even know what she was doing until like two days before,
you know, like who's how she was going to what
she was doing? And then Ramsey was kind of well
what about me? And I was like, well, why don't
we start yours next year? We'll start having your parties
at our house next year. So that's why it's kind
of for whatever reason out and if it's the summer
as they really grow up, you know, when they really
(03:07):
get older and then they it just started with Fourth
of July for us too, it's always.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
Kind of I don't know why, but.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
I feel like that's Halloween for me. I feel like, see,
that's that started for Halloween, do you know what I mean?
The first time my kids like, oh wait, you don't
want to trick or treat with us, It's like no,
they want to go off with their friends. So I
feel like that was that was kind of our very
far thing because for fourth like we're always gone, so
it's a little it's a little different for us because
(03:34):
we don't stay home. So I feel like that's kind
of like the equivalent for us for Halloween.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Well in our true fashion. I like that we're not
at the same time, so we can dig each other
out of emotional turmoil. So I'll take over Fourth of
July and you can dig me out, and then I'll
see you at Halloween. I'll dig you out.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
I'm good though, Like I you know what I mean.
I think it's like I think it's a beautiful thing.
Like to see them. I know it's still hard, but
like it's so great to watch them run off and
have fun.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
I know, it's just bitterswee parenthood. Yeah, like if you're
doing it well, this is what they do. But if
you're doing it well, then you're also going wait, I'm
down a little headcount, and I don't like it.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
I know.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
I was reading a book to Roman the other night
and it was all about the last. It was actually
it was a Karen Kingsbury book. It's a She's got
to tell their book out and it was all about
like soaking in because I don't know when and it'll
be the last, like the last that you do this
or the last time you do this. And so I
swear Roman and I sang songs for like twenty minutes
because I'm like, one day he's not going to be
(04:30):
singing the song because he's just growing up so fast.
I mean, and all the kids are too, you know.
I mean even on the lake. Jolie's got her sweet
little lake friends, which I love, so does Jace, and
you know, she's like, I'm just gonna go paddle over there.
I'm like, do you want to paddle board with mama
and she's like no, She's like, I want to go
over to my friends. I'm like, okay, Like so it
does like it is changing. But it's great though too,
Like I love that they have the sweetest little community
(04:53):
here to like hang with, makes it better.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
It's just such a sweet stage. Like I love it too,
Like I probably enjoy this stage the most. Yeah, but
it's like you said, it's still bittersweet. It's still you know,
like you know, Kate, And I'm like I definitely had
that moment of oh my god, this is our last summer. Well,
I mean we'll have next summer right before he goes
to college. But I'm just like, what is happening? How
(05:16):
did we get here?
Speaker 1 (05:18):
I feel so old, i know, and.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Like he's just been gone for like two weeks, you know,
and he does that a lot in the summer.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
But I'm just like it just hit me. I was
just like I love this stage.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
But I'm like, oh my gosh that it just comes
to this like abrupt end, Like now I just have
to send them off next year.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
I mean, the last time the kids come to the
lake because they're going to go to college, I'll be
probably a mess or when they don't want to come
to the lake.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
So hard.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
I'm sure they'll want to come to the lake though,
And I just keep telling myself they'll want to come
home for summers, right, I mean, I guess you never know.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
You just assume, but you never know. They may just
want to stay.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
I don't know, Oh Cat, I couldn't do it. I
actually don't know how we're going to do it. I
remember when Preston and I talked about, like we were
just chatting, like would we you know, because I think
going to college now is not as common, Like I
don't think that the pressure to go to college directly
out of high schools is as common as it used
to be. And yeah, and I like that, like, I
(06:14):
you know, the savings we've set up for the kids
are just like this really like little nest egg that
they could have whatever they choose to do after they
leave the house. And then Preston's like, wait, she never
has to leave the house. And I thought, she's not
gonna live with us forever. And then he said, is
there like daddy daughter dorm options somewhere? And I was like,
don't be a creep, Like it's just wild. I mean
(06:35):
even with our oldest being that we have eight more summers.
That's just really hard for me to even digest.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
And Cat's down to one, y'all.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
Oh, I mean that's the thing that's what hit me
on for the July. I was like, it's just us three,
like like, wait, this is crazy. I know, it's it's
it's just too much on at.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Is there anything that you feel like you would have
done different if you being in the position that you
are now, like knowing that you're down to like a
final summer, Is there anything that you and Nick would
have done differently in the summers or is there something
you wish you know? Like you I think we all
hear from a lot of like really great moms that
have gone before us on Instagram or in our own worlds,
(07:18):
and they're always saying, soak it up, soak it up.
It goes by fast, and we know that. But like,
is there anything sitting in your seat now that you
wish you could share with us? At least?
Speaker 4 (07:28):
You know, I definitely say travel.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
Travel as a family, we're decent at it, you know,
I could do I would love to do it more.
But that is definitely kind of my number one I
like to give advice like travel as a fly, what.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
About financial means? So like give us an example, like
getting in the car, like you guys go to the
car to the beach, right.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
Yeah, we do.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
And you know, listen, would Nick look at that and
say differently? Maybe he may say, I wish we traveled
less so we had more money in our account, you know,
I you know, I don't. I would love to ask
him that, but that's just really important to me. And
you know, there's a lot of money that's not in
sitting in our account for retirement because we have chosen
to travel. And he sees how important that is to
me and has really but yeah, I mean we you know,
(08:10):
the family of five growing up, I also was in
a family of five and we never traveled well, we
weren't flying five of us.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
I mean that's a fortune, all right, so expensive?
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Yeah, so yeah, I mean getting in the car and driving,
you know, is is really important.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
And that's I mean granted gas prices are high and
that gets expensive.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Too, but you know, and just finding ways to do
it then, you know, the most affordable. We'll just you know,
for Christmas, like you know, we just went to Gatlinburg
real fast. And it wasn't an expensive you know, we
just really kept the expenses down. We just did it
small and just hung out together, you know, just to
get out of here, because when you're at home, they
get to the ages, y'all are starting to see they
(08:49):
all go their separate ways, you know, and so it's
not until you really get out of that and you
that they really spend the time together. And it's interesting
because lately, actually Kate and said something to me before
we left town. He was like, hey, I was taking
him to dinner, just me and him. He's like, are
the girls coming? And I was like, well, Ramsey's at
a friend's house and let me go check with Emmy.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
She's got a friend over. And he's like, oh, I
thought Emmy was coming.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
And I was like, he's not one to usually be like,
you know, really like aren't they coming?
Speaker 4 (09:16):
You know, like not in a bad way. He just
doesn't care.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
And he's like, well, you know, I know, Emmy really
wants to like have a closer relationship with me. And
I was like oh, and he was like, you know,
she mentioned that to his girlfriend. They're you know, Emmy's
also friends with her. And he was like, what am
I doing wrong, and like I know, it like broke
my heart. And I was like, buddy, you're not doing
anything wrong. She just really loves you and she really
(09:40):
looks up to you. And I think the girls are
realizing you're going to college soon and like they're emotional
about that, you know. And he's like, Okay, I just
you know, I just want to make sure I'm not
doing that. I was like, no, like, y'all have a
great relationship. And then I told her and then she's like, oh,
I feel terrible. He thinks like he hasn't done anything wrong.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
I just you know. So it's all kind of hitting
all of us, you know, and that weird way, is.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
There times when he's not with like when y'all came here,
Like is there times where like the girlfriend doesn't come
so that way like they can have more time together.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Or like she that's really the only time she has
oh really, So anytime we vacationed, she's never come, got it.
Speaker 4 (10:16):
So she's only spent one night.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
She did one night at the lake with our family
at one point, and then one night at the lake
with y'all.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
That's another thing that I'm like, not, no, Like I
don't know where I'm ready for that yet, because I'm like, okay,
that was going to be my question of high school.
Like I back in our day, like I was never
allowed to go on a vacation with my high school
sweetheart because like you just there's no way, like even
if you sleep in different rooms, like there's that was
(10:45):
just like a huge no. I mean we weren't even
allowed to be downstairs pretty much by ourselves.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Yeah, you know, like I was quite prude back then,
so right, I love that back then.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
Then.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
I always love a juicy Kramer moment. You guys, I
did on vacations with my boyfriend, and I you I did,
and I will I will say maybe that was not
the smart as choice sometimes, but that family shaped who
I am so much that I can't imagine not sending
summers with them.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Maybe it'll get different when when they're older, but right now,
I'm like, there's no way that I could, Like I
feel like that's where I might be strict.
Speaker 4 (11:23):
Yeah maybe, And here's the thing, And it also is different.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
I hate to say this and I'm gonna get hate,
but it is different with the boy and the girl.
What do you mean I can't imagine letting Emmy do it.
But yeah, but like I think with me, granted, her
mom has not let her come for more than a day,
(11:47):
so that's another thing. Like I have we have invited
her for like an actual vacation, and that hasn't been
allowed yet.
Speaker 4 (11:53):
Having said that, she yes, stays in the room with
the girls. Excuse me, you know she's she was in.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
The room mc kayden slept in the pull out when
they came to the lake.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
Yeah, but like I still don't stress about it as
much with the boy as I know I will when
it's my girl again.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
Can you explain that to me? Because I don't like
I'm help me explain that one.
Speaker 4 (12:15):
I just hmm, I'm okay.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
Are you no, it's okay? Are you saying you don't worry?
Is it? Kat's like I'm in a bear trap and
I went out. Are you saying, like to send Emmy
off to a boyfriend's vacation or are you saying to
have a boyfriend with Emmy on your vacation or both?
Speaker 4 (12:36):
I would have the boyfriend on vacation with us.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Before you would send her off.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
That I'd send her off.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
Yeah, I think a it's I don't trust other people.
I mean, I've even been told that I'm way stricter
because like I don't let them in the bedrooms, you know,
do you know, especially with dors closed, but like all
the things, and I'm apparently the only he doesn't even care.
It doesn't bother him in the least. He's fine with
that role. But he I'm like the only one that
(13:01):
has that rule. I mean, even Emmy's age, people are
letting the girls and boys hang out bedrooms and stuff,
and like, I just don't allow that. And so when
I think about her going off with and maybe it's
someone I really trust and I know they have really
strict rules, but it just feels different. And again I
think they respect my rules, but I don't know. I
(13:23):
just he's not going to be going anywhere with her.
Probably they have like five kids and it's just a
you know, a zoo and all the things. So I know,
with him and it's always at my house, she would
come with us. I know my rules. I know I'm
paying attention, so maybe it's more that. But also let's
just be honest. And I think other people would hopefully
give me some feedback on this for some reason when
(13:45):
they get this age and you're worried about sex. You
don't worry as much about your boy as you do
your girl.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
It just it just is.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
And I don't know if it's because the girl can
end up pregnant at the end of the day and
then you're the I like you just do ask other moms.
Speaker 4 (14:00):
I promise I'm not the only one.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
I mean, we have conversations about sex all the time,
you know, we talk about things like that, but like,
I don't know what it is.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
It just feels different with the girl.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Do y'all know that I had the conversation with Jolie
the birds and the bees, uh huh. But we'll talk
about it when we're all together. So we'll pin that
one because I have to just tell you how that went.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Uh, Kramer, you never told us about your fourth. I
want to know how your fourth was. It's your first
Lake fourth.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
It was the first Lake fourth. I will say I
woke up on the fourth. Well, first of all, Cat,
thanks for sharing all that. Oh yeah, because there's a
lot to deep dive into that, and I'm excited as
we age into that range yep, like just on a
side barley. I don't even let Jolie sleep over at
someone's house if they have older brothers, not because I
don't trust the older brothers or the parents. I just
(15:03):
don't like.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
I just don't.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
I think that's fair. I've had that conversation with lots
of people.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
But anyways, No, the fourth I woke up a little
sad just the in the morning, just because the only
other Fourth that we haven't I haven't spent up north
was our wedding week because we were going to Scotland,
so I had to have you know, I had to
give Mike the kids and then with just there. It
would have been way too much travel to do Fourth
of July and then fly to Scotland. So I think
(15:31):
there was just a tinge of missing, like my my cousin.
My cousin's wife sent me a picture of being like
we miss you guys, and they're on there. You know
my Grandma's nineteen ninety you know pontoon that I loved
and grew up on, and you know my my grandma
and the photos with my mom and you know my
aunts and uncles and so because it's just so much
fun when all my aunts and uncles get together. But
(15:55):
as much as I like, I missed and was sad,
and the moment I had like the most incredible fourth
It was so much fun. We have such an amazing
little cove of friends and neighbors that we've met. They're
so sweet. The kids are all around the same age.
There's no one in Roman's age, but Roman just is
like I'm swimming to my friends, like he's just just yeah,
(16:18):
he's out there right now. I see them over there,
but yeah, it's just it was great. And then T
and T sent us like this enormous amount of fireworks.
I was just like, hey, you know, we're gonna put
on a little firework show. And then they just send
all these fireworks, I mean, and an Alan was down
at the dock and lighting the fireworks, and all the
neighbors came over and the kids with the sparklers, and
obviously I invited y'all, but I know that you guys
(16:40):
had your other plans. But it was it was so great,
and it was just a good first memory to make
for sure, Like zero, it was just it was good.
And maybe one day, you know, we might go back
up there at some point, but we are just loving
it here so much. That and the memories that we're
making so and you're posting in laws in yeah, and
(17:01):
they it was so funny because his dad, you know,
first thing he said in the morning was the happy
fourth of July, you know, and he was wearing his
little Fourth of July shirt and doing sparklers for the
first time. And it was really sweet to kind of
watch them because this is their first Fourth of July
they've ever celebrated, so that's the first time they've ever
seen it. And I mean there was just fireworks going
(17:22):
off everywhere on the lake.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
It was just it was so cool. We should have
had them on to see to interview like a first
time Fourth of July or like, what's your impression of
what as you guys we're all doing the American things,
but like I can't imagine coming coming and visiting. I like,
I'm I'm sorry, what is hot dogs? Macaroni salad?
Speaker 4 (17:45):
Fireworks?
Speaker 1 (17:46):
Everyone just like screaming, and yeah, I mean it was
And then our neighbor or one of our lake neighbors
was like, Hey, at the very end of fireworks, do
you think your husband would yell freedom was no, he didn't,
but it was we got a good laugh out of
it at least, So it was fun. No, but it's
been great.
Speaker 5 (18:04):
It's been it's been really good.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Who's got a whine about it? I think I kind
of did that. I'll say getting older sucks. I'm gonna
put I'm just gonna say that. I am really struggling
and it almost can make me emotional. I'm not gonna cry,
but when I think about it, I went out on
the jet ski and I hurt my neck. You guys,
(18:39):
a couple of weeks ago from sleeping wrong on a
freaking pillow, a pillow like, I had a kink in
my neck for oh, I couldn't move my neck for
like a week, and then it got worse worse, No,
I'm serious, worse, and it finally got better. And so
I'm like so excited because one of our neighbors has
got a wake boat and he's like, hey, I'm gonna
(19:00):
pick you up this morning to go wake surfing. I'm like, great,
I can't wait. My daughter was going, you know, take
take her skiing, which she tried this morning.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
It was great.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
And but yesterday I hit a wave or whatever on
the on the lake in the jet ski, and my
neck is so messed up that I woke up in
the middle of the night and I had to take
a muscle relaxer because I had some here the last
time I hurt my neck, and I'm like, this sucks.
Like I'm just like this sucks, and it's it makes
(19:30):
me angry that I'm like, I can't go out on
lake because I can barely. I'm like, can barely move
my damn neck.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
That's like, I think it's so funny because I, you know,
I make everything in my life a Saturday Night Live
skit when it's been worked out, and I just see you,
like hot Jana in a bikini with a neck brace
on your jet ski. But you guys, that's it, do
you know? Okay, So I'm trying to be careful because
I don't know if these people listen. So I oh,
the things I want to say that can't say because
(20:00):
I know people I know I know and I don't.
This isn't. This is not by any means, Like I
absolutely adore these people, so it's not. I just have
come to the two year point of getting older. I
need sleep. I've never been a person that needs a
lot of sleep. I just never have. I am a
rock star. I did eight jobs in college. I got
up at four am to do the radio. The morning
show on the radio could rock it out in the
(20:22):
last two years, like sleep is such a necessity that
I it has to be getting older and the balancing
the hormones or whatever. Like tonight, my husband wants to
have our neighbors over to watch the soccer game. Guys,
it starts at seven. I'm like, there's no way everyone's
out of here by eight thirty or nine, and so
what am I gonna do? So what am I going?
Speaker 5 (20:45):
Like?
Speaker 3 (20:46):
Am I what have what turned into eight or nine?
Speaker 1 (20:50):
What I'm like?
Speaker 2 (20:51):
Also, decoy shoes are set out, take those off? You
out of here by nine? Like who am I? I know
I'm impossible, and I I don't want to be I
want to be fun. I like I used to be
so fun. God, I was so fun.
Speaker 5 (21:04):
I know it sulls.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
It literally sucks, like I was as I'm watching Jolie ski,
I'm like, I want to be skiing too, Like I
want to be out there and I literally can't because
I am one wrong move away from a full on
next fasm.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
I wanted to too, but when we were there, but
I was like, I'm actually scared I.
Speaker 4 (21:23):
Will hurt myself and it's not going to be worth it,
so I didn't.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
I think what's hard is like for us, I feel
like our brains and our bodies aren't matching. When does
that go away?
Speaker 4 (21:33):
Because we feel like we're still eighteen.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
Yeah, Like I actually did want to pajamas too. It's
like that would actually be fun because I well, as
long as she wasn't driving. But I was really like,
I was like, oh, if I hit that wrong, my
tailbone wrong, like I'm just out for like another you
know what's happening is this? I know this is the forties.
I hope not. And that's the thing.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Like even Dave who's driving, because he was like, Hey,
we're gonna go grab the wake boat.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
You want to go wake surf?
Speaker 1 (21:59):
I was like no, literally, if it's not my neck,
it's going to be my back and I can't do
it right, like I can't have both out at the
same time. But he's just like, you're too young, He's
how old are you? I going forty two? And he goes,
you're too young to be dealing with that. I go, no,
when I hit forty something, just like I don't know
if it was having a baby at the age I
did in my court going. I don't know, but it's
just that's my wine and I'm just it's frustrating me.
(22:19):
So any I don't know an advice, just don't do
stupid crab on a lake.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
I'm just trying to figure out I can kick people
out by night. I don't know what's going to happen here.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
Well, I'm very excited to get together again later this week.
We've got lots to chat about, lots lots and lots
of headlines to discuss. One huge one.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
A royal wedding of sorts has happened, and I am
living for the fashion of the guest list.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Oh did you see chrisa stunning Chris stunning?
Speaker 2 (22:58):
No, all of them. I mean I saw Lennan Doyle
and Abby like I which, by the way, her caption genius.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Oh they looked so great. So did Haley and Becca
Yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Like her message was cute and she said love your
retired GYM teacher and your retired English teacher. I was like,
so cute. Yeah, I just am like living for it.
I also really wildly respect somehow the privacy of how
they're keeping it so private. It's so it's just epic.
(23:30):
I mean, we're never I has there ever been a
wedding MSG, I don't think so. I mean this is.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
There's been a couple. I looked it up. Okay, there's been.
Well i'd have to look back now, but okay there was.
I think there was like three or four from what
I saw.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
But yeah, I mean this is wild. Yeah, and a
lot of country music, like a lot of our friends went.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Which is Ballerini, Maren Morris, a little big town Miranda,
lots of singers and songwriters like it was wild.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
I mean it was just crazy. But I am guys,
I'm not super emotionally invested in Taylor other than my
daughter's a swiftie. But I'm emotionally invested a little bit
in this wedding, and I won't lie like I want
to know they've well done.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
I was actually surprised. I was kind of glued to
it as well. And it's not like me, but I
was definitely glued to it.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
I can't imagine how beautiful too.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
I still thought that it was not really the wedding.
So I was so invested because I mean, if you
look at like all like the tiktoks and stuff, people
were like they already got married. This is a label release,
this is your announcement.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Like people don't know anything. That's what's so so frustrating
for Like when people say things like even like on
these things, it's like they just they don't know, you know,
And I'd love that they kept it private.
Speaker 4 (24:43):
Yeah, you know, I was invested. I was like, it
really is the wedding.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
I also was like, can I get a copy of
the NDA. I'd love a copy of that NDA. Get
put from my own little world, because whatever is happening,
and you've taken like the most craziest of celebrities and
somehow kept everyone quiet, I need to know everything.
Speaker 5 (25:00):
What are they up to?
Speaker 1 (25:02):
Well, we will chat more about that later this week.
We've got obviously our new format coming and down this week.
So I love you, ladies. I'll see you later.
Speaker 4 (25:12):
In the week.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
And I love you guys so much.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
I love you.
Speaker 4 (25:16):
Be careful if you decide to wake board.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
There's no chance, Like I just I there's no chance.
But I am going to take the kids right now
to Cocktail Cove even though we don't drink, but we're
gonna That's so that's what that's what it's named Mocktail Cove. Yeah,
we are now Mocktail Cove. So yeah, yeah, oh you guys.
By the way, I probably shouldn't say.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
This, but my favorite sentences come after that. My father in.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
Law is rocking the speedo right now and it is
so great.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
It's euro time at the cocktail Cove. Banana hammocks are
among us.
Speaker 5 (25:56):
It is a sight to see.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
I just love it. Just I'm proud to do. I
just love it.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
They're just like living it up and it makes me.
It makes me so happy because I see Alan's heart,
like just having his family here, just it makes me
so happy.
Speaker 5 (26:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
I actually I've been paying attention to his faces and
like your pictures and just I mean it does it
just makes him so happy. It's his home. Home with
home is the perfect way.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
I recorded them last night while watching the England game.
Actually i'll probably post it because again had no clue
what his dad was saying, but I just keep smiling
and laughing. So we're going to go out there and
go float and mocktail COVID.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
