drumsticks

we had our old neighbors, the andersons, over for dinner on saturday night. we hadn't seen them since they moved a few months ago, and the neighborhood hasn't been the same without them. truthfully, it was emotional for me to see them go. tom and greta were born only a few weeks apart, and he was her first neighborhood friend. sarah jane and otto are only a few months apart, so it was fun to get together and let all the kids play and the adults could just hang out. they were kind enough to bring dessert....drumsticks! yum! although, it occured to us while watching our kids that we are not sure that either one of them has ever had an ice cream CONE. they needed lots of coaching and instruction....both greta and otto were trying to eat from the bottom up.
regardless, they were a mess. and a HUGE HIT!!
patrick, emily, tom, and sarah it was so great to see you guys!
