All dressed up! Angel was presented with an award at work and we were invited to a formal reception at The Marriot, Downtown where we were married. His co-workers, supervisors, managers, etc. think very highly of him, and it was nice to finally meet them all. I'm so proud of you Angel!
Due to the gorgeous weather we freakishly experienced last week, I decided to skip a day at the gym and take Sonja to the park instead. She went straight for the jungle gym, and I had to face the fact that during the short winter months, she grew enough to be able to climb the ladders and stairs and find her way to the slides by herself. It took a couple anxiety attacks, but I finally took a step back and let her go up and down all by herself. I was overwhelmed by her independence and beaming with pride at how well she behaved with the other kids. You wouldn’t believe how much fun she was having. Until… I told her it was time to go. She cried and said, “No, no we are NOT going home.” I made a deal that she could go down the slide one more time, and it was time to go. Of course, that was the time she fell through the bars of the curved ladder, bonking her head on the way down. Don’t worry dad, she was tough.
To summarize this weekend, Horton Hears a Who on Friday night, Pacquiao vs. Marquez on Saturday night, and for the grand finally… DISNEY ON ICE on Sunday! We have turned Sonja into a Disney cartoon enthusiast, so this was a big deal! She dressed up as Cinderella and even grandma and grandpa joined us. We saw all of her favorites, Aladdin, The Little Mermaid, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Beauty and the Beast, and of course, Cinderella.
