Football and dance.
I had no problem finding Franklin High School where James's pictures were to be taken. Molly and I dropped him off then I took Molly to have breakfast and play at McDonald's. When it was time to take Molly to her dance class I had no problem finding the house. I just typed the address into MapQuest and bingo, I am there. I love MapQuest on my phone! Well Molly refused to stay and I didn't want to force her so after about 15 minutes of trying to bribe her we left to go pick up James. Oh did I mention that Heather, the dance teacher is from Mesa, Arizona. Wow, it's a small world.
The Championship team, The Tribe. James is #33.
Can you find him?
Going back to the football field from the dance teacher's house presented a problem. I got lost and ended up on the freeway going east. It was awhile before I found my way back. I Map Quested Franklin High and found my way back to James. He was the last one to leave but he said it was okay because he got to play around. Wow! It's a wonder that Jared trusts me with his kids.
When I got back home I found that Molly had spilled her cereal all over the floor and bench and it was pretty hard and crusted on. I spent some time cleaning up that mess. I also swept and mopped the floor and did the dishes.
When Jared got home he began getting the Christmas decorations out of the attic. Emmy was excited to go up in the attic and do some exploring.
I should be helping instead of taking a picture.
After attempting to put up the outside lights with not much success, Jared left to go get Rudy's for dinner. He is very kind to do this since that was my one request while I was here. He got 3lbs. of moist brisket, potato salad, beans, and Little Miss Sunbeam bread. I haven't seen Little Miss Sunbeam in years! It was a delicious dinner.
Molly loves the potato salad.
After dinner and baths there was a Christmas story and then we watched the movie, "The Perfect Game."
Tricia Skyped and said that Aaron had surgery and was doing better. The doctor was hopeful that he would learn to walk and talk again. The family is very hopeful.
Back at home in Arizona today is our day to start the holiday season by going to Serrano's for dinner and then going to look at temple lights. We were sorry to miss this fun night. James is back home in Vernon.
Family dinner at Serranos.
