Out On the Town - Christmas Night

We had two "social engagements" Christmas night. We were invited to Jean's house (that's where Ed was renting a room before we moved up here) to see some violinists play. I wish I had taken my camera in. It was pretty cool. Jean is friends with some violinists at her church and one of them plays in the National Orchestra in D.C. She invited them over Christmas night to eat food and play. It was like a private concert! They played classical music - all very, very good! There were about 10 of us sitting in her living room just enjoying the music. Pretty cool.

We made plans a few weeks before to go over to the Curley's house on Christmas night to play Bingo. I guess it is a family tradition for Erin's family and she was really excited about it so we went. Everyone brought a few wrapped gifts as prizes (I'm not going to lie, we did some regifting while we were there - but I promise it wasn't anything from you!) and she had a spinner with wooden balls and everything. We didn't stay for too long because we were out late the night before at the BWB (a bar down the street with the best hot wings in town) for their Christmas party. Ed must be a good tipper because we scored an invite to their private party after they closed down the bar. It was pretty fun - especially the part where I got to dance to Single Ladies. Luckily Nolen and Max haven't yet realized how embarassing their mother is. I wonder how long this will last because they will probably start acting like they don't know me at some point. Sorry boys!

Logan's babys siter Rowan! Rowan was born on December 17th! Logan is the boys' friend who lives across the street. He is three and until recently was an only child. The boys have fun playing together most of the time but Logan is still learning how to share.
