Good Sports

Saturday afternoon we enjoyed a visit from Mimi and Pops during which the girls performed a concert consisting of their favorite Taylor Swift songs and their favorite selections from Grease (No, we have not let them see the movie. We recently went to the school version of the movie/play performed by Natalie's school and their addictive personalities took it from there). After the concert, Pops and Daddy sat quietly (while I am sure biting their tongues) as the girls "dressed" them up. We couldn't resist getting a couple of pictures.


After they shed the wigs, we regrouped (gave a little pep talk) and met Kim and Tom at the hibachi grill for supper (see Hibachi Hysterics post if you are not familiar with this story). Natalie was OK with the decision but Alyson took a little more convincing. When we arrived at the restaurant, she still wasn't crazy about the idea, but at least she was cooperative. She did move her chair directly behind mine at the grill and stayed there the entire time, but she remained calm and would take a peek at the show occassionally.
Other than the obvious with all the inaguration events and coverage, our week has started off pretty quiet and uneventful, just cold. Natalie was out of school yesterday so it was back to the grind today. We are looking forward to a visit from Kerri, Hailey and Harrison later in the week. I am sure I will have some stories to tell during and after their visit. Hopefully, I won't take so long to post next time.
