A little getaway


I can't wait to do a little post about Benjamin's first birthday on Friday.  But in the mean time, a few good pictures of our almost-one-year-old B.  He is almost walking and likes to toddle around holding onto fingers.  

We had a little getaway to Houston this past weekend to visit some friends who used to live in Waco and to attend a family wedding.  Benjamin loved playing with our friends' children (and all of their toys--especially the dolls!) and we loved getting to relax and catch up with our friends, eat good food, and share our musical .... eccentricities?   Is that fair to say?  And by "our" I mean the husband-folk.  What are the chances that two people anywhere will both own (and try to play) accordions?  

Benjamin loved the music, and also enjoyed the swing in their backyard:  


We had fun dressing Benjamin up for the wedding the next day.  I think he liked dressing up--and all of the attention that came along with it.  I guess we all liked getting dressed up.  We don't do it very often.  

More on Friday.  B is waking up from his nap and doesn't sound too happy.
