Week in Review

On Sunday afternoon, we watched the musical Beauty and the Beast at COC's Performing Arts Center. Melanie's long-time friend Georgie was starring as the Beast, and he was amazing, as always. I should have gotten a photo with him, but it was another horribly hot day and we were tired after the show.

We did get a photo of Violet with her classmate Peyton from last year; Peyton was one of the children in the chorus, and Violet loved cheering her on.
My parents took the girls for the evening after the show, so we could have a date night. Stace and I got a nice dinner at a Greek place in town, and then caught a gorgeous sunset.
On Monday, I got the girls up and out before the heat struck. We walked/scootered down to Granary Square for breakfast.
Bagels at Dink's - always a good pick.
Later, we had a sad discovery - the deep purple slime Violet made with Kat was embedded and hardened into her carpet. Oh dear.

We worked hard, using many different carpet cleaning methods, but there remains a lavender circle on the carpet.
On Tuesday my mom and I took the girls and Cooper and Wylie to Hurricane Harbor for the afternoon. Later that evening, we went to Patrice and Geoff's for dinner. It was great to reconnect with them. We enjoyed food, their pool, and half of the movie Avatar before it was time to head home.

On Wednesday night, my parents and I went to a Dodger game - our first of the season! This was my Father's Day gift to Dad. It happened to be $1 Dodger Dog Night - hence the lapful o' dogs.

The Dodgers won in the bottom of the 10th inning - exciting finish!
And on Thursday, Cora went to her final swim practice of the season. She had great coaches this year and learned a lot!
