My boy is in town with Dewdrop and Jacquelyn, and we’ve had some holiday adventures. I was jealous about their ice skating fun, since I couldn’t join it, but I got lots of joy watching them. They were a delightful show.
Adam and his sweetie have some enviable skills that deceptively make the sport look easy, but I was smart enough to know that my clumsy, concussion prone, bad shouldered, just recovering from two viruses, self, really should not attempt the ice rink.
The kiddos had a good time, but were ready to sip some tummy warming Starbucks with us and let their dad glide on without them for a while.
Not only are they graceful skaters, my boy and Jacquelyn are excellent cooks and have been treating us to spectacular meals each night too.
Our first day was iffy, we me still being under the weather, and our plans shifted a few times, trying to figure out the best way to go. Instead of picking them up at the airport and spending the day, we sent Sugarwings as chauffeur and I rested til it was time to go so we were able to keep our evening plans.
And the show was so cute. Silly, with less drama than most Cirque programs. Just right to kick off our holiday week.
Each day we have been crafting late into the night! I’m still a bit worn out and my creativity isn’t at its peak, but Adam’s pieces have been magnificent. And we still have days to go, with time for more beading. Along with cookie making, a ping pong tournament, and watching some holiday shows. Plus, as an added bonus, Santa has delivered some 60 plus degree weather, so we will be getting in lots of dog walks.
I hope the week brings you joy, also. Merry Christmas!
