Social Overload

I haven't had a weekend this social since the pre-kid days.

Friday night, we had dinner at a friends' house. They've got a music room with two drum kits, two electric guitars, and electric bass and keyboard. Before dinner, we had a kid-driven jam session. Asher sang into the mic and helped me play bass.

Saturday, we hit the usual Shabbat sing-a-long. Then, after Leah's nap, we went to a cookie decorating party in the neighborhood where Asher got in a fight with the host's kid over a train set.

Sunday morning was a latke-making birthday party where conversation drifted predictably to which of the local shuls was best. Later, we stopped by Scott and Nicole's house unexpectedly so that Asher could make use of their bathroom. And, we capped off the weekend with a visit from Amy, Dan, Ollie and Sylvie. The parents ate dinner. The kids wrecked the living room with a mop.

This is my life folks - at it's best.
