Dance Party

In our former life (pre-kids), we were known to enjoy a few home grown dance parties. These events generally started at the Torero when someone (Justin) would utter the infamous words "it's a two margarita night". Things would usually go downhill from there, resulting in rowdy dancing to a very loud mix of hip-hop, top 40, disco, and of course 80s hair-band music. The night would eventually conclude with some disaster, like losing the battery to my camera...

Well, tonight, we needed a little boost to the MacFarlane family morale. For whatever reason, the words "jitterbug" popped into my head (as in ba-dum-dum, Jitterbug - the start to Wham's Wake me up before you go-go). And then the dancing started - well, I started jumping and dancing around the room while my two little boys, sitting in their respective highchairs, watched on in amazement. Once they were cleaned up from dinner and out of their chairs, we all boogied to a great selection of 80s hits (thank you again Pandora!). We'll have to make dance party a part of every weekend!

Echo echo echo...

We welcomed a new pet to our home: Echo, a lovely red Betta. The name is all Spence, though he did pose a few other suggestions. Spence: I'm going to name it Bluey. Me: the fish is red. Spence: then I'll name it Reddy. Me: Let's stick with Echo. That's a cool name.

Sunday Afternoon in the Park

Could be a well known play, but in this case, it's the new Yankee Stadium. I picked up tickets Thursday afternoon for today's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. This is the first game we've been to at the new stadium. The new stadium is very nice - much more in line with other new stadiums. There is a lot more space in the walkways - more food options - and much better bathrooms! The latter being most important to me right now. Our tickets were in left field in the upper deck. All in all, decent seats - but the sun made them a bit unbearable. The game started off slow - I mean slow. The first two innings took almost 2 hours. We were roasting in the sun! Eventually, we decided to walk around to check out the rest of the stadium and get out of the sun. The game got much better after we starting moving. Eventually, we ended up on the first level watching the game from the walkway. The pregnancy bump paid off, because one of the ushers in this area let us sit down in the shade
