Last Cotillion

This morning we walked Noah to school and then I left for my school.

I stopped at Target to pick up a gift card for a birthday party and then I met Morry for lunch at Wholy Bagel.

Morry went to a meeting after that and I came home.

We walked to pick up Noah.

Then, Noah went over to Grandma and Papa's house.

Tonight was the last Cotillion.

Evan's friend, Reid, was dropped off at our house and then we all went to the final event.  Parents were invited to this one.  They had a ballroom at a hotel and the kids demonstrated some of the dances they had learned.  Then, they had to ask a parent to dance.

After the event, we met Reid's parents at Chick Fil A to drop off both Reid and Evan.  Evan is spending the night over there.

Then, we went to Grandma and Papa's to pick up Noah and bring some chairs for Passover.

Here are some pictures and a video from tonight.

Sports Followed By Manners

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Evan had 9:30 baseball practice this morning.  We used this occasion to renew our tradition of stopping at Donut Taco Palace. 

Evan played well at practice.  He led off the scrimmage with a very hard hit to left field for a single.  He walked in his two other plate appearances and scored each time.  He played catcher for several innings.  He almost threw out a runner stealing third but the third baseman dropped the ball.  He seemed to have a great time and was super hyper on the way home.

Noah slept in until after 11am.  He's been suffering from allergies and I think it just wiped him out.  He said he felt a lot better after getting so much sleep.

When we got home, Rachel was taking Chewie for a walk.  They bumped into Lizzy's old friend Brody the golden retriever.  The two dogs played some.  And then Rachel let Chewie play with the dog, Carlos, who lives across the street.

We relaxed at home for a while.  Evan and Noah went out and played in the front yard.

Later in the afternoon, Evan had his second Cotillion class.  It was actually the third of the series, but Evan missed one when we were in Houston for a tournament.  He didn't seem to be dreading it.  But I don't think he particularly wanted to go.

I picked Evan and Darius up from the class.  I told Daniel that I'd bring Darius over to where he was coaching his daughters in basketball.  Both boys seemed to think the class was boring.  They worked on knowing what each item in a place setting was for and how to eat a formal dinner.  I know it's boring but it's good skills.

After we dropped Darius off, we came back and had dinner.

The boys will be getting ready for bed soon.

Until next time...
