Today was a very full, but fun day!
Patty, Erin, Lucy, Cassidy, Patty's mom Pat and I went to a craft fair this morning. Well, craft fair may be a little understated...it was more a fine art and handcrafted jewelry show. It wasn't particularly kid friendly and though the booths were full of beautiful items, it wasn't the whimsical stuff that draws us to things called "craft fairs". As Erin observed, "$145 for a purse? I could knit that myself!" And she could.
After lunch, My mom, Pat, Patty, Erin, Katie and I headed to see a local production of "Little Shop of Horrors". It was very cute and well done. The girls recognized some of the actors from "A Chorus Line" which we saw a couple of weeks ago.
All the while, the younger set (Cassidy, Lucy and Lily) stayed with Bob-Bob and Pop-Pop (Patty's Dad). They had a good time...the babies mostly slept!
My mother had declared Saturday night a "Grown-ups" night, so Patty and I had to find something to do to entertain ourselves. Well, we showed them! Pizza and beer, ice cream and a park (ok, so we skipped the beer and opted for coke instead)! We took the girls to our favorite pizza place up here, The Mellow Mushroom, then to Kilwin's for some yummy dessert, then to the park for 2+ hours of play time...it was well after 9pm when we were done there and heading home.
The girls are all being wonderful, for the most part cooperating and being good. Cassidy and Lucy have their little spats...mostly over shoes. They both understand the other's passion for shoes and takes it to a very personal level. It's quite amusing and they really only get mad at each other then they are tired.
We're heading to Tweetsie Railroad tomorrow. Cassidy can't wait to wear her cowboy hat and to get her gun and vest and be a real cowboy! I'm getting a sense of what she's going to be for Halloween!
