It's been a busy weekend! We said goodbye to our friends Dan and Angie who are moving to Tokyo! They have been our neighbors all along, so it is hard to lose them. Sad! After a quick lunch with them, we headed over to one of Jamie's frisbee games.
(They won.)
Then we headed over to our friends' house -- their adorable son was turning two (and it was also a chance for us to meet his new little sister.)
(A little play-by-play of the big moment when he blew out his candle.)
The best was when he kept on running his toy train into the side of the cake so that he could eat the extra frosting. Clever boy!
Little could top the children's birthday party, but then I had brunch with some work friends this morning and then walked over to the Dupont Farmer's Market to watch Jamie's singing group perform. I tried to take a video of it to share, but since it was an outdoor venue, my camera couldn't pick up enough of the sound. I'll just tell you that they were great!
We hung out for a little bit in Dupont Circle afterwards with friends. We noticed that there was an unusual number of people hanging around on the circle. We just figured that there was some kind of dance demonstration going on and parked ourselves on the grass to talk. After 15 minutes or so, the crowd had gotten enormous and I realized that this had all the makings of an Improve Everywhere event. As soon as I reported as much out loud, some music started and a bunch of people busted out dancing.
By the end there was a pretty big group...
Of course, this wasn't actually an Improv Everywhere event -- probably more of a Facebook coordinated event. Still, it was a nice coincidence to be hanging out at the park at that moment.
Here's an actual Improv Everywhere event. (I did not want to link to the video of the No Pants Subway Ride.) Ted's Birthday video is pretty funny.
All in all, a pretty good weekend!
