Big Night Out

Actually make that two big nights out! Last Friday we headed out for our first adult dinner without the kids (hiringa babysitter and going to Home Depot doesn't count, right?) and had a great dinner at a cute little French restaurant in our favorite part of town. And then last night we took Noah out for a special evening of dance...a modern dance performance by Momix http://www.momix.com/. It was in a beautiful old theatre downtown. Noah did great and we all had fun. It reminded me of when I was a kid and my parents took us to all sorts of interesting cultural outings. One of my New Year's resolutions was to get out and explore more and I am happy to report we have been doing that...the science museum, parks, art museum, zoo, and the beach. It has made such a difference as we start to learn more about our new community and start to make connections with new friends. Feels like we are finally starting to feel a little more rooted here (at least for the next three years).
