• Oh it’s been so good to be home. Last night I went and visited Mary at work, and then this morning she, her nephew Jonathan, James, Dana, and I went to breakfast at Walker Brothers.

  For dinner my grandparents brought Dragon Inn (best kung pao chicken in the world) home. I have now met my needs for Chicago Pizza, Pancakes, and Chinese Food. After dinner we went into the family room where Megan and Jonathan had started to swing dance to the Big Bad Voodoo Daddies.
  
  I was amazed at how well they can dance.
  
  Soon James and Margot joined in.
  
  And then I cut in.
  
  James and I started to bust out the moves.
  
  
  And then, Oh my, Grandma wanted to show us how to really dance, so she and Grandpa join in.
  
  And the funny thing is, they are better than everyone else. Grandpa sure knows how to bust out those moves. I wish I could dance like him! Boy did it light them up too, they looked twenty years younger.
  
  It wasn’t long before the whole family was swing dancing in the family room.
  (The full album here) It was so much fun! I can’t remember the last time we had so much fun.

  And then we sat around the fire and watched “It’s a Wonderful Life,” and you know what? I cried at the end. That’s right. I wish every night could be like that.
