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!

School Projects

Jack has a school project due this Friday. The project is to visit a specific historic landmark in the city and then put together a write-up about the visit and place. Jack's location is Hamilton Grange which was the country home of Alexander Hamilton. We visited a few weeks ago (yep, we've have the assignment this long). Finally, Jack started putting together the project today. OMG, it was like watching me from 30 years ago. There was denial and defensiveness, then came tears and finally he produced really good work. If this is what the next 15 years are going to be like, we are in trouble. Also - sorry Mom, I know I tortured you with this experience many many times.
