Friday Jeff picked us up, Susan had tickets, and Katie provided the entertainment at the spring performance of PUB, the Princeton University Ballet. Katie danced in two of the numbers and was, of course, our star. However, the entire program was pretty amazing with very expressive dance numbers. Some were beautiful; some were breathtaking; and one was very dark and sombre. The performance was at 5 so we ordered a pizza pickup at Romeo's in Plainsboro Village for 7. Jeff, Susan, Katie, and Eli came over to our apartment for pizza, fruit salad, and brownies. We even used the dining room table, a very rare occasion for our setting a table for six.
This morning Laura sang with her church choir in a Blue Grass mass as a part of
the Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church service. She asked if we could pick up three of her children. Two children rode with her earlier. Yes, we had three seatbelts in the rarely used back seat so we were happy to help. How could we say that we could not get our grandchildren to church?! It did mean an early start from Princeton to get to Gladwyne and then on to Bryn Mawr but in spite of rain, we were in our seats plenty in time. Ruth rode with her mom earlier and found us. The music was accompanied by a professional blue grass band and was beautiful and unusual. There were maybe ten numbers interspersed through the service which had the regular elements of confession, sermon and prayers.
We had lunch at the Conways and then headed home in the rain. Once again, we are happy to spend time with family and to support the activities they enjoy--and then to come home to our own place for the evening.
