Weekend o’ fun

It was a weekend of fun. Friday afternoon the kids went to their respective lessons: Travis to piano, Hallie to riding. I took Travis from piano over to meet Kelly and Hallie at her lesson, where Hallie and her trainer were just putting away the horse. I said goodbye and went to Durham to spend a little time at a holiday party.

Saturday morning we enjoyed sleeping in a bit. After breakfast, I said goodbye again to the family to spend four hours in a “producer’s workshop” from Raleigh Television Network, Raleigh’s community access channel. I’m getting trained on video production as it’s something I’ve been interested in for a while. While I was in class, Kelly took the kids over to the neighbor’s house to decorate Christmas cookies.

I met up with the family after my class and we took the kids to the birthday party of one of the kids’ friends. It was at a gym in Wake Forest and we all had a blast chasing each other around. Afterward, we went to a holiday party at a friend’s house and enjoyed meeting more of our neighbors.

It was a fun time for everyone.
