We just got back from another fantastic weekend with Soliana and Tizita.
On Saturday, we drove down to Oshkosh and picked up the girls to take them to our annual play at First Stage in Milwaukee.
We have seen Rudolph and Charlie Brown there the past two Decembers. The girls decided they didn't want to see Rudolph again, so I bought tickets for Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors. I was really worried that the girls would not understand anything about the play. I was pretty sure that I wouldn't get it either. The suggested ages for the play was 12 -adult, oops, didn't read that very carefully, we were going with a 5 and almost 10 year old. Oh, well, they are smart girls. I was just hoping we would get through the 90 minute play without too much disappointment.
Well, who am I to worry. The girls actually loved the play even if it was difficult to understand at times.
The story is actually pretty funny and after the play, the girls were able to talk to the actors which made the whole experience a positive one for them.
Success all around.
The predicted snow had started as we left the theater.
We arrived back in Oshkosh, met Courtney and Paul for pizza and beer at Cranky Pat's.
The girls went to bed to rest up for their Christmas service today.
Courtney and I enjoyed a few more beers and some nice conversation late into the night.
Today we went to the girls Christmas service at their church.
I love Children's Christmas services and this one was fantastic.
Soliana was a sweet angel.
Both girls sang beautifully.
After church we went over to the Roxy for some delicious breakfast foods.
The snow was still falling.
We ended the perfect weekend with a celebration of Tizita who is turning double digits on Dec. 19.
She was so excited to get her Cheer jacket, a double digits T shirt, and her first goody box.
It was a great way to celebrate a great lady
We left around 12:30, still snowing, but the roads were in good shape.
John shoveled, I unpacked, and now we are hoping the Packers can pull out a win!
That would be the perfect end to our weekend.
