I took Connor to Jacob’s birthday party on Saturday afternoon at Sky high Trampoline Park.  After they settled in and started jumping, one of the moms and I attempted to go shop at the nearby Costco.  Unfortunately with this crazy crowded location, 15 to 20 frustrating minutes later we decided to give up and returned to the party instead.  After jumping and eating cake, Connor had a good time and we headed home.

   For the evening, I had bought tickets for the boys and I to support Jesselyn.  Her ballet school had a production Winter Wonderland at a theater in Campbell.  Stuart offered to drive us, and after my afternoon of frustrating parking, I definitely appreciated that.  At the theater, after the boys and I said hi to Jennifer and Jonathan, we found our seats and comfortably situated.  This was the first time the boys watched a ballet, so I was a bit worried if the boys would be patient.  Once Jennifer told us the characters Jesselyn was, we started reading the program to prepare ourselves.  The show began and it was wonderful.  The dancing was great and the costumes were beautiful.  There was a range of ages of dancers and everyone did great.  Logan was the first to spot Jesselyn when her group came on stage.  It was like celebrity sighting; the boys were excited.  At intermission, the boys were happy to find snacks to purchase; they quickly ate them and preferred to return to our seats.  We enjoyed the second act just as much.  The written program allowed the boys to be more engaged and followed through based on the dancer costumes.  Jesselyn sighting was cool too.  At the end we all really enjoyed the show.  Unfortunately we could not go back inside to see Jesselyn, so we gave the flowers to Jennifer instead, and met for Stuart who just arrived to pick us up.
