Lexi's Birthday

It took a village, we built a village, and the whole village had fun!

Macbeth

DCC Theatre's Spring show was Macbeth: an Original Adaption which closed this evening. Here are some photos, mostly from the cast party setup. Antonio was in the Ensemble and Matteo was the Lighting Chief.

Got redder as the night went on...

Lallier Champagne

While on our European river cruise a couple months ago, we met some folks who turned out to be related to the family of Lallier Champagne. We finally got some and gave it a try today. Quite good!

Christmas in Charleston, SC

The whole kit and caboodle took off (literally) to spend the week before Christmas at a beach house in Charleston, SC. What a hoot! Of course, a grand time was had by all. In addition to beaching, swimming, enjoying family in Charleston, and just plain relaxing at the beach house, we also visited a few places: Boone Hall Plantation, Festival of Lights, the South Carolina Aquarium, and Fort Moultrie. All the photos are here.

We were properly prepped. 100% carry-on!

And properly dressed. And yes, the traveling unit
did get a few comments at the airports.

Anastasia

The Colorado Springs Conservatory's production of Anastasia closes today (2:00pm curtain at Armstrong Hall on the Colorado College campus). Playing Dimitry, this was Antonio's first adult lead (after having done several kid leads and supporting leads in shows like Oliver!, Matilda, Willy Wonka, and The Sound of Music). Such fun. And what a beautiful, classic show.

Happy Thanksgiving!

It was a bit weird... For one thing, we weren't in Kansas City. And with a big trip planned for December, we were very anxious to get Christmas started. So it was the Reguscis, Fosters, and Krebs that gathered for Thanksgiving in Colorado Springs this year. It was a great day!

Check out the new black cupboards on the back wall.

Turkey AND prime rib.

Patiently waiting for Nana.

How about that!

House Makeover: Christmas Lights!

You wouldn't believe the effort going into making this happen!
