BRUCE LUCAS MEETS THE WORLD

So in my last entry I mentioned a Cabbage Patch kid named Bruce Lucas. I know what you are sitting there thinking, why is Shelby talking about a cabbage patch kid? Well Bruce Lucas is kind of the stuffed animal that I will never get away from.

He is my boyfriend oh excuse me fiance's cabbage patch kid from his childhood. When I first got to know Jeremy he introduced me to Bruce Lucas one night as we were talking about toys/things we used to play with growing up. Jeremy jumps up and says that he wants me to meet his cabbage patch kid Bruce Lucas. Ok yes a 22 year old man still has his first cabbage patch kid and he even remembers its name. I meet Bruce Lucas and fall in love with his bald head and athletic jogging suit. He is simply the most adorable cabbage patch kid I've ever seen! So Jeremy decides that he is going to start taking Bruce Lucas with us everywhere we go. We go out to eat, Bruce Lucas goes too. We go to the beach, there's Bruce strapped in his seat belt in the back seat of the car. Man people love to see Bruce sitting in the back seat without a child safety seat! So at one point we tried to keep track of all the states we have taken Bruce Lucas, we have pics of him at the Virginia state line and at his favorite park.


But I will never ever forget the look of puzzlement I got from oncoming traffic one day when Jeremy decided to moon people with Bruce Lucas! They didn't know whose butt they were looking at! And when they found out it was a Cabbage Patch kid, they just laughed. It was like a bad episode of Mad TV.

At my friend Kari's rehearsal dinner, Jeremy I think told several members of her family about Bruce Lucas. He is now expected to be part of our nuptials. I sure hope he can keep his pants pulled up! There is no telling what the future holds for Bruce Lucas, I know he will forever be a part of mine!
