Purple Mountains, Amber Waves of Grain, and the like

Two weeks ago I had a blast with the girls. I wanted to hang with Sarah and Dione because I thought Emma was still out of town. At first I was afraid I wasn’t going to hear from either of them and I was going to have a lonely night at home. Lo and behold I got a call from Sarah and she said she would love to do something and that she, Dione, and EMMA were going out for dinner and a movie. Of course I was totally thrilled that I was going out and it was just icing on the cake that Emma was back home. I had no idea! We had a lovely dinner at “Our Place” in Ridgeville then went to see Evan Almighty. I liked it a lot! Steve Carrel is such a hoot. Then on the way back to Sarah’s we all sang “Hey There Delilah”! That was probably my favorite part of the whole evening.

The next day I went to the Scottish Highland Games in Wellington. It was sooooo much fun! I really enjoy bagpipes and there were about 3 different pipe groups going on at a time yet it all kinda blended together to form a complete song. Afterward the kids that I went with and I went to a get-together at Tony’s house. He lives out in Wellington so it was no big deal to get there. He has a beautiful house out there with a big pond out front. Of course I didn’t bring a swimsuit so I hopped into a rowboat and just made circles out in the middle of the pond. Yay!

This past Saturday I saw Ratatouille with Emma and Sarah. It was really cute and I loved the music. The greatest thing was seeing my Discrete Math teacher at the theater! He is from Romania and is sooooo awkward I never thought I would see him out on a date. Yet, there he was with a girl looking just as awkward as he. It was awesome!

Today is the fourth…HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY!!!! I went to a little shin-dig at the neighbors and had a good time. Without Mike I have had much more time to bond with the locals. Its been fun.

Oh yeah I meant to tell a story in my last post. It was about the flight to Kansas. Help me remember to tell you next time.
