We Love Minneapolis and Johnbro

Molly and I went to the Minneapolis Orchestra last night.  John drove down from Fargo to see us and babysit for us. We LOVED the experience so much be bought subscriptions (well 8 tickets over the next year).  Also, we wanted to support one of the friends we have made from church who plays French Horn in the Orchestra (He got us these tickets). It was a sampler performance of many of their pieces throughout the year and there was a lot of awesome stuff.

 Our favorite piece (perhaps rivaled by the Star Wars theme) was Tchaikovsky's Death of Tybalt from Romeo and Juliet.  It brought tears to our eyes.

Here's a pretty good version:

Help me Jonah, you're my only hope!

E.T.

Sometimes I think Poppy & I have an "ET/boy from ET" thing going on.  I can tell what she wants cause often times I want the same thing.  Yesterday she pointed up at the bookshelf... to the oreos. Yes that was exactly what I was thinking!  We're typically tired around the same time, and hungry. I can't think of any really good examples, but it happens.  It's probably not the same as on ET cause its been 100 years since I've seen it and it frightened me, but whatever, that's what I call it.

Last night I was having a sad time. I have been missing some special people.


Today Poppy carried this photo around - for a good part of the day- and would talk to it and laugh at it.

I know she misses them too.
