The Sound of Family!

How about a photo recount of our wonderful weekend in the company of our Dallas Grands!

Our youngest Grand played the part of Louisa in the North Dallas Performing Arts production of "Sound of Music"

Let me just tell you what a trooper she is.  She started the night not feeling well and before she could get completely off the set after her opening number, she literally threw up, necessitating the alternate Louisa to finish the 1st half of the play.

During intermission, when she realized that we could not come back the next day to see another performance, she said, "Then I will finish!"  And she did and did a great job.

  

A sister came all the way from Fayetteville, AR to see her.

After this kiss, she looked at her sisters and said, "You might not have wanted to do that!!"

Fortunately no one else was sick the next morning.

We are so proud of the long hours of rehearsal and Ava Grace's dedication to give over and above to every part she plays, as well as everything she is involved in.

Saturday morning it was our pleasure to take the three older Grands plus a husband and a boyfriend to brunch at "Ida Claire's" in Dallas.

Outside there is this little Air Stream decorated with a Moroccan theme with small tables for intimate dining.  So cute, but too small for us.

We ate in the outdoor garden and the weather could not have been more perfect.

Oh my goodness, was the food delicious and so beautifully presented.

We met Emily's friend, David for the first time and were very impressed with this fine young man.

We love these wonderful, smart, independent, productive young people so much and enjoy every minute in their company. 

And is it necessary to add that they are bunches of fun?
