Eat Mor Chikin

So...yeah...it's been almost two months since we've posted anything here. Sorry.

Life in the South has often caused Jess to threaten to write a book about the strange things she's encountered in her southern adventure. Today was another event that caused us to pause and think, "Where are we living?" (The good news is that it has caused us to finally post something here again!)

A Chick-Fil-A just opened on the island, and Tuesday night is officially family night. That means 99 cent kids' meals. Tonight was pajama party at the restaurant for kids' night. The place was an absolute zoo. Kids were running around the restaurant with a cow bell, screaming, "Eat More Chicken" with a cow dressed in PJ's. Annika thought it was great. That never happened in Jersey (nor would it have been a highlight in our week). It's definitely a different world here.


We were out because Annika had some art on display at a local art show. Here's a picture of her with her work. She drew a picture of herself and our new dog, Laila. (They were selling the pictures framed for $30. People were buying them as though that were a pittance, but my Erie cheapness won the day.)


Finally, we thought you'd like to see a picture of Sammy. He turns one in a little over a week. He's a tremendous kid, and we feel very blessed to be his parents. He's been playing catch with me all the time, which I'm loving.
