On Thursday, we went to the church that Isabella and Charlotte go to for a bit on Tuesdays and Thursdays. It was soooo cute watching the little 4 year olds and 3 year olds sing on stage. Some of the girls were moving and grooving and some of the guys didn't move an inch or open their mouth the entire time. Here's a quick pic I snapped of Charlotte and Isabella after the show:
That day, I came home to nice a little surprise from Ryan's work. I thought it was such a thoughtful gift:
The card says on the front "Your thoughtfulness means the world to us" and the inside says "We believe the holidays are a time for families to be together. As a token of our appreciation for sharing your loved one this holiday season, please accept this small gift." How nice is that?
Last night we had a bit of a girls night with Kim, Alysa, and Kim's friend, Betty. We went to a nice dinner in downtown Nashville and then went to see Handel's Messiah at the symphony hall. It was a beautiful area and pretty cool to see. I'd never been to a symphony before so now I can say I've been! My favorite was when the choir and symphony sang/played Hallelujah...it was very powerful and gave me chills. Here's a pic of us girls after dinner and before the show:
Do you like the spot we chose? That conductor is doing some serious work in that picture.
Thankfully, I've been able to talk to Ryan everyday. He's doing fine and keeping busy. While talking to him today, I think he sensed I'm getting quite frustrated with carrying the entire phone conversation, so today he made more of an effort to talk and says something besides "not a whole lot to tell you here". Maybe by the time our 4 months is up, he'll know how to carry a conversation over the phone! I can only hope ;)
Glad you are keeping busy -- that will help the time fly by. And being able to carry on a conversation on the phone is an important life skill . . . Ryan is a bright boy -- I bet he'll learn! :)
