Happy Thanksgiving

We spent the day at Nonna and Grandpa's house along with Kristen, Brad, Jenny, Cooper and Emma. Maize and Reggie were there as well - they were in charge of clean-up.

We had a great time and the cousins certainly had a terrific time playing with each other throughout the day. Jack and Cooper had the kitchen table to themselves and proceeded to duel with lightsabers throughout most of dinner. A perfect Thanksgiving.

Oatmeal

Okay, weird title, right? It's also a bit bland but this morning Jack ate his entire bowl of oatmeal (with brown sugar, of course). Why the post? Because getting Jack to eat the entire "*" of anything is an accomplishment and it deserves acknowledgement.

Family Fitness Night at Kincaid

Jack and I ventured out to one of our first Kincaid events last night - Family Fitness Night. You could order healthy Subway sandwiches but of course, we brought peanut butter! After dinner, we took a yoga class, jumped some rope and learned a little karate (I believe the official terminology is tae kwon do). At first Jack was shy about joining the tae kwon do class but after he watched for about 10 minutes, he joined in the next group and really enjoyed it. I will have to look into some possible lessons as they really stress respect and discipline.

We're gearing up for a relaxing weekend. Dave has Friday and Saturday night off...rare these days...so it should be a nice weekend.

Fall for the Freemans!

I've taken a long break from updates but I am back! Jack just turned 6 and we had a great family Halloween. Jack is also off to a great start in Kindergarten at Kincaid. We've gotten used to the schedule and are grateful for daylight savings time as we were able to head to the bus stop this morning without a flashlight for the first time in weeks!

Dave has been so busy with work that he passes through the night but he's been to some great venues. Last weekend he played the 40 Watt Club in Athens and tonight he's at the House of Blues in Orlando. I was fortunate enough to sing at Carnegie Hall on October 30th with the ASOC.
