Thursday was Jenn's birthday. We drove to her house in Santa Clara and then went to Palo Alto to see Jodie and Chris. Our timing was really good, because Corry landed there also (his first paid vacation from the new job.
We picked up Jass, went back to Jenn's for some serious Scrabble playing, and then headed to Macaroni Grill for the big birthday dinner. It was delicious and Jenn loved her present- a new GPS to replace the one that was stolen from her car in a recent robbery. :-(
Friday we went over to Sue's and we all went to see Gravity, the new Sandra Bullock movie, which was great!
We saw the 3D imax of it (and won't go into detail about how aggravated we were on the half hour of commercials (!) followed by a half hour of previews before it actually started, making us late for the Jass pick up)
Later, Tom and I went to a country dance place called Rodeo right here in Santa Clara and had big big fun with lots of dancing. This was a concert night and the group was really good. Blackjackbilly, I think they were. I thought it was interesting that I could hook up the look of each band member to another country star...we had a Jake Owens guy, a Jack Ingram guy (whatever happened to him?), a Luke Bryan guy, Keith Urban hair like guy on the drums and one that I could only compare to maybe a skinny Kramer (from Seinfeld)...
We're debating today's activities, but hoping Sue will join us. Ahhhh! California dreaming.....!
