Once Every Four Years

Once every FOUR years, FOUR by Brother Luck throws a "Once Every FOUR Years" dinner party! And this Leap Year was no exception... This year's beverage partner was Jackson Hole Still Works. As it turned out, Brother was out of town, but his chef partner, Ashley Brown, and her crew did a marvelous job. Too bad we missed visiting this distillery when we were in Jackson Hole last year!

The Espresso Martini and the
Cross Venture were the bomb!

Fire, Groceries, and a Show

I was in interesting weekend. On Sunday there was a fire across the way on the Air Force Academy property. It was brought under control fairly quickly, but not before we got an interesting view from our third floor landing. The Air Academy and the elementary school in that vicinity was closed a day or two following. Then on Monday Tracy and Lynn went grocery shopping! And Papa, Nana, and Antonio saw She Loves Me at First Company - Bravo!

The Latest Puzzle

 Tracy's doing, of course...

Wizard of Oz Gatherings

Antonio had some friends over from the Wizard of Oz production to watch a Willy Wonka movie. So the "catering" team went into action including Fina making the signs. This happened to be the same day we got some pics from a rehearsal earlier in the day.

Dual Baptisms: Fina and Antonio

Fina's baptism was planned. Including dinner at our house with Gregg's parents. Antonio's baptism (both at Life.Church, near Prominent Point) was spontaneous! Congratulations to both! Welcome to the flock!

Annapurna and the Twins B-Day

Nana and Papa took in the Springs Ensemble Theatre's (SET's) production of Annapurna this afternoon. Bravo! Fascinating story, great actors, and a wonderful set/production in such an intimate space. Following, the whole family showed up at Red Robin Restaurant to further celebrate the twins birthday!
