For those of you who watched a lot of Saturday morning TV in the 80's, you probably can hum the tune to this phrase -- "The shot heard round the world, was the start of the revolution." We took the kids to the spot in Concord, Mass, where the shot was fired. Pretty cool history. And it is a beautiful spot.
If you've ever gotten Peets coffee for a meeting or event, you know that they give you way too many cups. So what do you do with the extra cups? In the Hornik house, apparently you create a whole bunch of art and mount an exhibition. Darrow and Beckett were hard at work this morning. This is what we awoke to.
I haven't yet gotten around to planning my menu for Thursday but I'm sure I'll get to it soon -- at least no later than Wednesday night. I always look forward to Thanksgiving. It is just a nice relaxing family time. The kids love it too. Just last week I came home to find these really great hand turkeys Beckett had made while hanging out at home with Pamela. I love the color and detail. But clearly the best part are the glued on eye.
Looks like Beckett is set for Halloween. He is going to be a parrot with giant feet (yes, the giant feet were his idea). Naoh is going to be a Hip Hop Alien (yes, being a hip hop alien was his idea). Darrow is going to be Dorothy (yes, she only wanted to be Dorothy so she could wear the ruby slippers). Julian has rehearsal for Christmas Dreamland Halloween night, so he won't be anything.
It was the last day for Noah's little league team. Alas, they lost. But by some miracle they did end up with a winning season. Today's game seemed a little like the last week of school -- no one was really paying much attention nor did they particularly care one way or the other. I think we're all ready for summer.
