Going Places and Meeting People

Lately we have been going to all sorts of places-sometimes together and sometimes with other people. It is fun to be active like this, and lots of times there is the  nice surprise of running into a friend or two unexpectedly.

                  Meeting birthday girl Auntie Jill with Kate for  breakfast at Penaera Bread . Kara and Baby Landon were there too. Louisa loves babies, and had a great time. The day before Kate and I ran in the same place  for a quick lunch with Louisa and ran into her high school friend Kelly-who had a baby boy in tow!

Mali and Evan at the Taste of Concord fundraising event. Mali was there representing the brewery she works for. The monies raised went to the Boys and Girls Clubs. Our entry fee entitled us to sample many varieties of beer, wine and foods from local restaurants. There was a cook off between local chefs, and live music. We ran into Peter and Pansy (old dear friends who used to live across the street )-Peter happens to be the president of the Boys and Girls club, and we saw an old college friend. I also ran into the former receptionist at our eye doctor's office.  Great fun-and we were full of great food and drink when we left.


The cook off-just like Food Network TV!!
One of the finished dishes-YUMMY!

Live music to eat and drink by-very nice.

Enjoying themselves!

Shoe shopping-a favorite of Louisa's activities!

"This one just does nothing for me!"

We ran into Paul, Michelle, and Maria shoe shopping-small world-again!

So, these few activities, along with the Harpoon Oktoberfest and the Light the Night Walk have kept us busy lately, outside of work and family. It is great to be able to do these things-and it is always fun to run into someone we know.

It sure is fun to go out and meet up with people! Louisa and I LOVE to get out and catch up with people, lets hope the snow does not keep us home to much over the winter months!
