So, I watched Shrek the Musical last week, and I fell in love with the music. It was so cute. Hehe. Funny story. I never cry in movies. Ever. So, when I was watching this, I almost cried. This. Shrek the Musical. I guess because the songs enhance the character's emotions, or something. Like, I could feel how Shrek felt. It was weird.
OMG GUYS! Did you hear the Girl Meets World theme song? I got it yesterday. It's amazing!
This chapter is kinda cliche. But, whatever.

Ally's POV
"Ally, hurry up!" I heard Austin yell from downstairs.
"Almost!" I yelled back. Austin was treating me to a day off from the kids. I didn't know where he was taking me, though. It seems like he always has to surprise me. Ugh. Sometimes, I wish that I could just surprise him.
I put on some mascara and then sprayed a little perfume. "Ready." I announced as I walked down the steps.
Austin sighed. "Ugh, hang on. Your mom still hasn't come."
"You called her like an hour ago. What's taking her so long?"
He shrugged. Then, the doorbell rang. He walked over and answered it. "Hey, Penny."
"Hey. Sorry I was late. Becky called me for some reason, freaking out."
I giggled. "About what?"
Mom rolled her eyes. "Who knows?" She clapped her hands. "So, where are my grandbabies?"
"I just put Amber and Ashton down for their naps, and Addi is up in her room... doing something." I told her.
She smiled. "Perfect. You two have fun."
"Oh, don't worry. We will." Austin assured her.
"Bye." Mom giggled as we walked out the door.
"So, where're we going?" I asked once we got in the car.
"Funny you should ask that." Austin opened the glove compartment and pulled out a blind fold. Oh, come on! He's starting to keep bandannas in the car?! "Put this on."
"Austin..." I whined, pulling out his name.
"Just do it." He said, shoving it into my hand.
"Ugh, fine. But I won't like it."
He waved me off before he started the car. "Yeah, yeah."
"Having fun?" Austin asked after about 10 minutes of being in the car. I could hear him smiling.
"Oh, you betchya!" I said, sarcastically.
He chuckled. I felt the car turn and then stop. "We're here."
"Finally." I started to take of the blindfold.
Austin stopped me. "Whoa, whoa, whoa! Not so fast."
"But, I thought we were here!"
He opened his door, closed it, and then opened mine. "We are. But, you can't take it off until we're in." He grabbed my hand and guided me to... where ever.
He couldn't tell, but I rolled my eyes.
I felt a breeze and heard chirps. Were we outside? We stopped walking. "Ok, now you can take off your blindfold."
I sighed with relief as I untied the bandanna. I smiled, looking at this beautiful picnic my husband had set up. The park was completely empty. I wonder if he somehow rented it out. Well, he is Austin Moon. "Austin. This is amazing."
"Thanks." He walked over to the blanket and sat down. He patted the free space that was next to him. I giggled as I took the spot.
In front of me sat a basket filled with circular peanut butter & jelly sandwiches, sparkling grape juice, a huge jar of pickles, and a vase filled with my favorite flowers. It was perfect.
Austin pulled out two glasses. "Care for some sparkling grape juice?" He was trying to act cool.
I giggled. "But, of course."
He smirked as he poured the juice into the glasses and handed me one of them. He raised his glass. "To our day off."
"Here, here!" I laughed.
We clinked our glasses and took a sip. It became silent. But, then Austin pulled out the sandwiches. He handed me one.
"Thank you." I said as I took a bite. We both started to chew, the air becoming awkwardly silent. I swallowed. "So, Ashton did the cutest thing the other day."
"Really? What?"
"Well, he-" I paused. "Wait. This is our day off. Why are we talking about the kids?"
"You're right. From now on, we only talk about Austin and Ally."
I smiled. "Cool. So... How ya been?"
"Good, good."
"Good." I looked from side to side.
"How have you been?"
"Fine. I've been kinda tired, taking care of the twins... Sorry."
He giggled. "It's ok."
I took another bite. "Been doing any mash ups with Kira lately?"
"Nah, not really. Ever since she and Jace eloped, I haven't seen her much at all."
After an absolutely awkward lunch, he took me to get some froyo. I don't know why he thought that would make things better. Going home and seeing our kids would make it better. Men. They're clueless.
Once I had gotten to the table with my froyo, Austin looked at it. "That's all you got?" I had gotten vanilla with no toppings.
"Well, the fun flavors and toppings remind me of Addi. She loves to get the whole topping bar." I smiled, thinking of the first time I ever took her to Zen Berri.
"Yeah. Yeah, she does." Austin smiled with me. Then, I saw his face light up. He had an idea. Hopefully a good one. He grabbed my hand a pulled me out of the frozen yogurt joint.
An hour later, we came back to Zen Berri, but with Addison, Amber, Ashton, and my mother.
I grabbed one of the cups and picked Addi up. She told me everything she wanted. Well, ok. Pointed to everything she wanted. And I gladly got it all.
We came back to the table and started to laugh. Sure, it wasn't exactly the "Off Day" Austin and I were going have, but it was way better than anything we could have expected.
Ok, yeah. It was WAY cliche. But, cute. :)
YOU GUYS! THERE ARE ONLY TWO MORE CHAPTERS LEFT! I'M CRYING!
