Late season farewell gelato


We are sad to see Grandma B headed south but at least she got a last fix of Mexican chocolate and pistachio for the road.

Headed to EBD's piano recital

Loop Alliance Gala


The red carpet was sponsored by Pressure Washing Systems so you know it is pretty big time.

Shoes


Jules got some new 3 inch heels from Pump. A bit hard to see under a long dress, at night, in a Blackberry photo.

Monticello Final


I forgot to post the Mini Me pic last night.






Natalie kept saying she wanted to see the "amaze." That may be the cutest thing I've ever heard.

Elliot and Grandma had the famous sunken garden conversation.

Monticello More






We got really lucky on day two. By the time we ate and went for a quick swim, the weather turned beautiful. We snuck around the main house at Allerton and Grandma B showed the kids her bizarre childhood home. Then it was koi grabbing and turtle feeding (salted peanuts work pretty well).

Nata was "fishing" for the koi sculpture. 

Incidentally, the tie was purchased at a downtown consignment store the night before. EBD fell in love with it.

Monticello Day 1 - Nature Bits







Brought the big boy camera and went a little nuts with the macro function. Lots of little living things in the woods of Allerton.

Trip to Monitcello






We left right after soccer and ducked south of most of the rain, it seemed. We lunched at the Brown Bag and then headed for Buck's trail. Dry creek beds are cool, especially when they are full of green walnuts.

Blue Demons battle on




An 8am start was a bit rough. EBD was battling a cold too. The Blue Demons lost again 4 - 1 but fought honorably. Elliot's goal saved them from clean sheet. 

Natalie called Colina and she met us at the field in her invisible speed car, which was cool. Grandma just drove her Camry.
