Guitar Lessons and a "Cookie Date"

Monday means......Guitar lessons for Ethan at Lexington's downtown YMCA and for the lucky lady who gets to accompany Chris....a walk, downtown tour of historic homes and streets or a fountain tour or the best of all ....a cookie date.

Tonight was for lucky lady Mary. She was so tired after a morning at school and playing outside all afternoon by her new favorite play place ~the fallen tree. Anyways, Chris said that she could go along with him and she jumped at the chance.

She loves to go with Chris anywhere...her favorite by far~Starbucks for her "cookie date". She gets to sit at a table in Starbucks with her dad and drink a hot chocolate and eat a cookie. Tonight she got a frosted cookie and she called me and asked if I could see her cookie and then wanted me to describe her cookie to her. I think that she may be on to something....maybe soon we will all be carying a "live"
3D cell phone. Wow....I hope not. I still value my privacy at the end of the phone receiver.

So when they returned home both Ethan and Mary had big smiles on their faces and a Vanilla Latte for me! Ethan's guitar teacher may be selling him an electric guitar. Ethan has been really wanting one for a while now. He is the neighborhood dog sitter and has saved quite a bit to purchase an electric guitar. He loves playing his guitar and has really gotten good over the past 9 months.

And Mary....she was thrilled to have time alone with her dad! She adores him. All of our kids adore him... I adore him! We are blessed to have him.

Happy Monday....Have a great week. We are off to a good start here.

P.S. Tree update.....it is leaving our backyard tomorrow. Hopefully!

.Chris and Jason tried to saw it this afternoon. It is a black locust and it would not cut! Let's hope that the guys have a more powerful saw tomorrow!
