Wednesday 2/15/12: Having a Ball

Mitch left Tuesday night and Deb on Wednesday, so the party is over . . . . . For now.

Thursday 12/8/11: Library Santa

We went to an event at the library, billed as "A Dickens Christmas." Truth in advertising would have required it to be call, "One man show with a few small magic tricks, bad puppetry, and a worse toupee." Henry enjoyed himself, but was sad and kept saying "My turn," when kids would get pulled out of the audience to help. It ended with a visit to Santa in the basement of the library. We lost our place in line because Henry insisted on using the drinking fountain, and then taking the elevator. As a result, we were nearly the last family in line for pictures with Santa. A moment later, I looked down and Henry was gone. By the time I found him, he was getting his candy cane from Santa. I didn't want to wait 45 minutes for a picture with Gigi, so I snapped one of Henry alone on Santa's lap and we took off. I think Henry's just in it for the candy.

Sunday 10/09/11: Family Outing to the Commons

We enjoyed a beautiful outing together to the village commons. While there we saw a wedding party complete with hummer limo, a quincenira, and what I think was a birthday party. It was a happening place.
