First Night Out

On Friday, my wife and I (pictured on the right. That's my wife, in case you can't figure out who's who) were treated to our first night away. We got to go to my wife's 10 year high school reunion, where everyone spends the first hour catching up, and the next 3 trying to be high school students again (except it's legal to drink now!).

So, because we were around family, Heather and I were able to spend our first evening away from David at the same time. It was kind of surreal. We had to take turns crying so that it would feel natural.

So, we're on our way out, but Dianne's camera stops working, so the photo of us never happened. But, through the magic of Photoshop, I was able to DIGITALLY superimpose myself in the picture, in such a realistic and authentic way that no one would be the wiser.

Despite my scathing sarcasm, it WAS a good time (thanks Josh and Liz!!!). Very good time. Heather got to see a lot of high school friends, and spent a load of time catching up. Very cool evening. But back to the important stuff.

As much as I would love to offer a full narration of David's evening...I wasn't there! Now I HEAR that David had a good time, that he got to do lots of fun stuff and be around lots of cool people. Apparently, he even got to take a bath. And while there is no proof of this, David hasn't told me anything different, so I'll take it all as truth.

For your viewing pleasure, here is the story of David's first night away from the parents. It will be told in the perfect way for the culture of the 21st century: lots of pictures, few words.

Grand Alan gets some quality time with his first grandson.
