Field trip!
|
As I am on vacation until the middle of next week, we figured that we would take the opportunity to do something a bit different from our normal routine. The kids always enjoy a day out, and it distracts Mrs A. who rapidly tires of my constant presence when I am not out at work all day. So we took the chance to pile into the Big Green Van and go to the Higgins Armory Museum in Worcester (pronounced Wo(short "O")-ster and NOT pronounced Wor-CES-ter, for you non-Mass. types) Ma. I had last been to this place when I was maybe 8 or 9 years old. This is a way cool museum. Lots of amazing stuff to see and do. We even brought along Amanda (rhymes with "panda") C., best-pal-to-'Drewie along. You can learn all you need to know about the trip here:

Chazapalooza - 2007
|
It is that time of year again, not Christmas, but Chaz's birthday! Though his birthday actually passed a few days earlier, we scheduled the Chaz_A-Palooza for this past Friday evening. A crowd eventually arrived (we even managed to snag the elusive and suspicious SJ, in town for the holidays) and once they all had their fill of meatball subs, chips and whatnot the entertainment began in earnest. For starters, everyone was enthralled by an amazing display of cup-stacking skill by Teds. Markie doesn't look so excited but I assure you, he is. After Ted got finished with that amazing display of skill everyone got into the act by flinging his cups all over the room. Ted, who somehow always manages to be the center of attention, ended up being passed around the room, hot-potato style. It took a while for all of that commotion to die down, but finally it was time to trot out the famous Mrs A. "Cake-Shaped-Brownie" birthday cake thing. The crowd went wild, spontaneously combusting into a loud chorus of the Happy-birthday-to-you song, followed by the traditional blowing out of the candle by Chaz. The eclairs, danish, brownie-cake, ice cream and cool-whip flowed freely, and Chaz began opening gifts. He was captivated by the wonder of this ultra-cool snap bracelet. It seems that no matter what the occasion, if Chaz is around, I seem to end up with at least one picture like this. Another notable event was a visit by a true celebrity, PAC MAN!! Though he has been out of the public spotlight for a while now, it was great to see him there, though later in the evening he started making threatening moves towards some of the guests. As the party carried on though, he mellowed and changed somehow, and Sven (in the background) declared him to be "adequate". All-in-all it was a great time!
Happy Birthday CHAZ!!!

Note to Heidi B-W:
|
If you are looking for your water bottle, Mrs. A found it a day or two ago. It was jammed down under the cushion of the couch in the music room. Just thought you might like to know. We'll hold on to it for you.
Love, The Anganes Family.

Welcome.
|
It's 4:35 AM. The fire in the woodstove is burned out completely. It's chilly in here and I found the toilet clogged. Welcome to Thursday. I'm thinking it's gonna be a long day.

Thanksgiving recap...
|
I just wanted to post this micro-photoblog to demonstrate what a great time we had around here on Thanksgiving. Due to various scheduling conflicts, we celebrated on Thanksgiving day proper at the "C" home, with the C family, Marg and Spmarg and two zany Chinese nationals (no kidding...). So we did the "A" family dinner on the following day. Everyone was fully in the spirit. Mrs. A figured that we all had enough turkey the day before, so she went traditional and made a tasty roast beaver. After she cooked it up, it looked ultra-tasty! (click here for the before picture, if you dare!)
Hope you all had half as much fun!
