Buddy was Here

T-man has taken to calling my Dad "Buddy." It is adorable and it was a fun week as he (and Drake) anticipated the arrival of "his buddy" and Nana. Friday afternoon, D-man received his birthday present from Nana and Pop: a guitar. How special it has been to have him be so into it and learning from Nana (he woke up Saturday morning and went to the basement to practice!).

We enjoyed happy hour at Benihana's on Friday night - the boys sat for 2+ hours! My dear friend Nadja was also able join us which was great.

Saturday morning took us to two basketball games. T-man was fun to watch and D-man had 6 points and played a great game! Saturday was a lazy day of games, errands and a nice dinner in.

Marshall made a tasty breakfast on Sunday and after some hanging out at the house and puzzle time, we headed to Moe's BBQ for some bowling, beer, and BBQ. We lasted 1.5 games and should have quit when we were ahead after one game, but still fun.

After some more family time and old fashion "Words with Friends" (aka Scrabble), we wrapped up a great weekend with a second round of pitch. Unfortunately, the good guys lost the second round (the women). As always, the time goes so fast, but was so special.
