A Night To Remember

The evening started out a little rocky but it turned out great in the end. It was time to get E ready for his dance but he was not convinced taking a shower was really necessary. After that drama he was finally dressed and ready to go. He look so handsome, I can't believe how old he is getting. The drive to the dance was dark and snowy. One of those nights you wish you were curled up with a nice cup of gluhwein (hot red wine for those non german folks) We got to the dance and E couldn't wait to jump out of the van.

While E was at the dance Brian, A, and I went to dinner at one of favorite restaurants, Casa Europa and had a great meal. Why is a meal so much easier with one child? Oh yeah because the other child is not there driving them crazy!! My boys are so easy when they are apart from each other, but put them together and it can be a very dangerous combination!

Time flew by and it was time to pick up E. Brian went into the dance to try to get some pictures but it was just too dark. He did walk in to find E dancing with a girl! When Brian and E made it to the car I swear E was on cloud nine. I have never seen him look so happy before. He danced with this one girl he "likes" twice and had the best time ever. He talked about the dance all the way home and long into the night. He even said he can't wait to go back to school on Tuesday. Wow that is a switch. He is usually trying to find any excuse he can to stay home. Unfortuantly I am not good at using my camera with the flash. Either they are too dark or too light and then there is the stupid shadows. But you at least get the idea of how handsome E is! Well I am off to dreamland. Til next time.
