Pizza, jazz and wine

Thursday was a fun night - Genia and John invited us to watch the Valencia High jazz band play at Vincenzo's, our favorite pizza joint.

John is the band director, and it was their final show of the year.

It was a really enjoyable night - good friends, good food and good music.

Being the old, boring parent-types, we don't get to see John do his music thing very often. Hopefully we can see more, this summer, now that Violet is older.

After the show, my dad watched the girls and Stace and I went to a new little winery in old (but revitalized) Newhall. We tasted a number of wines and ended up buying a delicious bottle of white.

We drank just enough that our sleep was weird and disjointed - I'm not used to drinking any more, that's for sure! But it was great to get out together for a date night. It had been a while since we did something date-like on a date night (i.e., not involving Home Depot or Lowe's.)
