As of today, 2011 is 15% over. As they say, time flies when you are having fun. It seems like there isn't much time for fun these days, but we have certainly been busy. This week has been especially crazy. I have been trying to get this blog done all week, but Ethan has been sick which has kept me from getting much done around here. Right now he is occupied with his crayons, so maybe I can get a few words written. A couple of weeks ago, we made a trip to Dallas to see Cirque du Soleil's Ovo. It is probably one of the better shows that we have seen--at least as far as the touring ones go. Tiffany's mom went with us to watch Ethan while we were out. We lived our three hours to the fullest, each enjoying our $14 margaritas. I asked the bartender if they were the best margaritas ever. They weren't. The next day we spent most of our time shopping and eating. For any fans of Cafe Brazil, I can seriously recommend the breakfast relleno crepes. If you don't live in the Dallas area, it might be worth the trip. Seriously. Ethan was pretty good the entire time, though he was definitely exhausted by the time we got home. As for things going on in Abilene, Monday night we left Ethan with my Aunt Vicki and went to see Beauty and the Beast at the civic center. The show is pretty girly, but as far as production and performance go, it was one of the best we've seen. The last show of the season is not until April, and it is Legally Blonde. Clearly there are too many women on the Abilene Cultural Affairs Committee. How about something like Terminator--The Musical? This week, on and off, Ethan has been running a fever. His nose has been running, and there is lots of coughing going on. I took him to the doctor on Tuesday. He tested negative for the flu. Basically, it's some kind of viral infection. The doctor said the runny dose and cough may last 7 to 10 days. Yea. I am going to wrap this up for now. I know it was short. Give me a couple of days, and perhaps I will have more to say.
And now Aunt Vicki has a runny nose. Memaw taught us to share----but we did have fun! Vicki
