We went to a festival for the Mexican Day of the Dead yesterday. A teacher from Samuel's school was performing in a dance / play / show. We took the three kids and at first I wondered how they would do with a dark theater-like environment for the 15 minute show. They LOVED it. Matthew was enthralled, Renee wanted her own chair and watched every move, Samuel stood on Marc's lap and followed the show with fascination. At one point, I turned to Marc to say something and Samuel responded with a finger over his lips, shshing me.
We got the card of a Mexican restaurant and decided to check it out for dinner. We called ahead, made a reservation, asked for 2 high chairs and settled for 1 high chair and 1 booster on a bench. Didn't realize though that it was a fine dining, $25 entree, no kids food, lengthy tequila list type of place. One patron asked to not be seated near the kids. At the end of the evening we had confirmation that: Matthew and Renee love guacamole, Samuel doesn't like homemade lemonade, food that comes on hot plates is not a good idea, fine dining and bring all the food as soon as each dish is ready don't go hand in hand, and once again my parents are amazingly supportive and generous.

Theatre and Supper - very sophisticated! Glad to hear one of them was a success.
