Here's one during the cakes

Laurie Berkner

Two weeks ago we went to see kiddie icon Laurie Berkner perform at symphony hall. Alison and Ginny went with us. Honestly, I think I may have been more excited than the kids. Sydney danced the ENTIRE show-- we sat in the first row of the loge so there was plenty of room to squirm around. She performed all the "hits" and everyone had a great time! We hung out next door at the High Museum for a while after the show to get a snack and admire the Lichtenstein house, and the Oldenberg sculptures. My kids are big fans of pop art!

All I Want for Christmas

Is everything! This was taken at Northpoint Mall yesterday afternoon........ the girls were overhwelmed with the "REAL SANTA" and gave him high-fives and inquired as to how his reindeer were doing. 'Tis the season .... we're on party 4 of 4 tonight and are having lots of fun!
