Cars, Proms and Fun

Busy...is a good word to describe life. I am sharing a few photos of what we've been up to the past two weeks. After almost three years of being this environmentally-great, one-car family, we came to the conclusion that we really needed to acquire a second one. The photos with Grama and Grampa are of the day they helped us find that special automobile (the requirements were: cheap and clean, with cute as an option; all three fulfilled.)  Thank you!

Tuxy the dog had his 2-year birthday; Sophie was his gift.  G. and a friend wanted to "do chemistry" one day, so we got out the test tubes and they made potions, to which I added vinegar and baking soda to see if they would bubble over.

C. went to her first and second proms with friends from two different schools, and in some cases, different countries. This new way of looking at prom as a fun dance is so much better than in my day. Kids go with their friends, they have a great evening, they go to an after-prom party that has hypnotists, scavenger hunts and bouncy houses. I hope the tradition continues and the pressure of post-prom drinking and couple activity is forever lost. You're only a teen once, let it be fun when it can.
