First Trip to the Theatre

Andrew helping Luke make his kite

Katherine needed some help, too!

The finished project!

 

All smiles after the show!

Mom got us all tickets to You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown at the Nashville Children's Theatre. I wasn't sure how Katherine would do, but we decided to try it.  It finally turned off cold today so we could break out the Winter coats!  The kids did wonderful and really enjoyed the show!  It was a great production.  There were activities for the kids to do before the show.  It held their attention for the majority of the play.  Only, toward the end did Katherine begin to get antsy.  We all said our good-byes after the show.  Andrew and Mandi are heading back to Florida tomorrow.  They will be back for Christmas though!  We enjoyed their time at home and can't wait to see them again.

Paul opted not to go to the play with us and instead stayed at home.  The kids and I met him in Gallatin for our Troutt Thanksgiving.  Paula and Bill went to MD Anderson in Houston the beginning of the week and did not get back until Wednesday night.  So, we decided to celebrate Thanksgiving with them today.  Paula has not had success with the chemo she has been on so they are seeking other opinions to see what the next step is.  They were pleased with MD Anderson and were very impressed with the physicians and facilities.  They also have met with physicians at Sara Cannon here and were blown away with what they have to offer.  We are praying diligently that God gives them wisdom as they make these next big decisions.

We enjoyed our evening with everyone.  I can't believe I did not take any pictures.  Kitty was able to join us, but Memaw wasn't able to.  Claudia was sick with a stomach bug so she was not with us either.  We missed them but had fun together and were able to decide on our Christmas plans and draw names for gift giving.  It was a very long, but rewarding day!
