Mom & Dad's for dinner

On Sunday, Chris, Tammy, and the girls came down for a nice Sunday dinner over Mom and Dad's house. Everyone laughed, joked, and the girls played around on the couch.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving this year was a little different then most years. My Mom just came home from the hospital the night before, Grandma was still in the hospital, and it was our first Thanksgiving without Red.

Because of this, we had a mini Thanksgiving over my Mom and Dad's house and the rest of the family over my Aunt Barb and Uncle Donald's house. Uncle Frank came up from Pompano Beach, and we took some pictures of him and the twins to go show Grandma in the hospital. As usual, they love having their pictures taken and are very photogenic when I pull out the camera. They were showing off their new outfits that Grandma picked up for them last year.

Steve Miller Band at Ruth Eckerd Hall

On Wednesday night, Erin and I went to see the Steve Miller Band, http://www.stevemillerband.com/, at Ruth Eckerd Hall, http://www.rutheckerdhall.com/.

We ran into Bob an Billie Jo while walking through the main corridor, and found out that they were only a couple of rows ahead of us. They played all of the classics, as everyone sang and got up and danced to the music.

Crabby Bills

On Thursday night, Erin, Char, Barry, and I went down to Crabby Bills, http://www.crabbybills.com/, to see Rob, http://robpieniak.weebly.com/rob-anthony.html. Due to the temperatures outside, he played indoors instead of outdoors in the Crabby Bills Amphitheater.

Erin, Lee, and I went down to first Friday in St. Pete where they close down the street on Central Ave. between 2nd St. and 3rd St. They have a live band playing with various stands stands selling beer and food. We stopped by the Garden,
