The Eliot December Assembly

Because Richie's school is just busting at the seems, they went looking for a bigger place to hold their December Assembly.  This is the bigger one where all of the kids "perform" and lots of parents go.  After looking into some of the local colleges, etc someone had the bright idea to go to the Peter Pan Tent.  Well lucky enough for us, they said YES so the kids were able to perform on the 360 degree stage that has been home to the Peter Pan performance the past few months.  We had seen the show so we knew how AWESOME this was going to be.  Richie was ecstatic although also nervous and asked if Peter Pan was going to be there.  No worries I took LOTS of pics and videos as you can see.
The K1 kids performed the winter hockey pockey and had to sit through all of the early performances in their winter gear.  They did great!  I was the most proud when Richie did the bells with NEMPAC (North End Music and Performing Art Center) which hosts his before school program.  He was the youngest one to get out there and ring those bells and he asked Ms. Becca himself if he could perform with them.  I know there will be a lot of other moments like this one, but I was beaming!  They ended the VERY long assembly with the Eliot fight song.  I am still laughing about that part....."We are the Eliot, the mighty, mighty Eliot..."

Singing the ABC's

So I finally got it on camera although it isn't his best effort. For those of you who have been around us recently, you know how Rich sings the ABC song ALL DAY LONG. It is obviously his favorite song and he is really good at it! In this video he misses a lot of the letters because he does not want to be taped. But he literally knows all the letters and the ending. I guess he was developing his verbal skills when he was sitting on his bottom for all those months NOT crawling. This was taken this morning and I had to bribe his with a cookie. It was only 9 am, but it was the only way I could get him to do it for the camera.

Celtics courtside!!

Image
At 5:00 Chris got a call from a customer (who happens to live across the street), asking if we wanted his seats for the pre-season Celtics game tonight.  Of course we do!  Yes, it was the first game of the World Series and the Red Sox were playing, but you still can't beat going to a game. Chris had a feeling this guy had good seats, but when we arrived at Row A the kids were ecstatic.  Courtside, directly behind the players seats!  It was so awesome!   They were just feet from us and they were huge.  We could hear the plays they were going to run and then watched them run them.  Angela didn't love the seats because we were almost too close and she had trouble seeing over the 6'7" players!  The game was on ESPN and we were so close to the court that we were also on TV a lot.  My Mom was able to tell me what we were wearing because she watched it.  I found a quick link below.  You can see how close we were. ...
