She loved dancin’ to the mariachi band!
GaGa, Pappy, Michael, and Kristina stopped by this weekend for a nice visit, and we had a splendid time!
We’ll begin with Eliza’s recital. Her costume was adorable, and so was the dance! She had some last-minute jitters and almost refused to go onstage, but Jimmy gave her a pep talk and bribed her with her favorite treats, so all went well!
Here’s some cute video of her performance at rehearsal:
And she wanted to perform her dance at home, too!
On Saturday, my favorite annual event took place–the Downton Abbey Tea Party! As usual, Anne (the hostess) when to great lengths to ensure that everyone had an absolutely marvelous time. This year’s theme was The Titanic, and Jimmy was invited to come along and play the role of Patrick Crawley (who died at sea). She reserved the private room at Landry’s Seafood, which added another layer of awesomeness to the whole experience. The people who happened to be dining at Landry’s while our party took place were equally intrigued and baffled by us. It was hilarious and wonderful.
It was practically perfect in every way! I’m always a little sad when it’s over!
We had a jam-packed weekend full of fun, including lunch with friends and two birthday parties! Also, we got to meet our friends’ newborn identical twin boys (sorry, I didn’t get any pics of the babies, but I will soon!). It’s a great time to be alive 🙂
And here’s some improv on the Barnes and Noble stage:
