Pickles and Parties

Saturday, March 30, 2013, Sidney and I accompanied Cleo to the Southwest Arts Center where her acting class is held. Sidney and I played on our electronic devices while we waited for Cleo.  Sidney and I took turns on my new iPhone 4S that I receive last week through work. They discontinued giving us BlackBerries and gave us the choice of an iPhone 4S or a Samsung Galaxy III. I chose an iPhone because I have never had one before.

While Sidney napped after Cleo's acting class, Cleo and I ran errands.  After our errand running, Cleo requested a pickle as a snack. We don't have whole pickles but I offered and she accepted some sliced dill pickles. She's had them at school and really likes them.

After Sidney got up from his nap, I took him to his classmate's 4th birthday party. Her name is London Ross.  She had the same cake that Cleo did at her party, except Cleo requested that the trim be purple rather than pink.  I couldn't coax a smile out of him at the table.  I do like his contemplative expression, though.  He ate a hot dog and some chips. I was impressed because he rarely eats hotdogs.

Sidney waiting with his friend London for the candle to be lit.  London is a Hello Kitty fan like Cleo is.

It's clear in that picture that Sidney is about to help London blow out her candle.

Sidney had a really good time at the party. We were there 3pm-5:30pm.  I had a good time too, I chatted for a while with Sidney's classmates' parents.  One parent who lives in the same subdivision that we do informed me that there was a huge marijuana bust on our street (around 4 houses away). The police found $250,000 worth of drugs.  People resort to desperate measures in tough times.

Have a great week!
