Meg and Mommy, Meg and Daddy

Recently it was Meg's turn for one-on-one time with Erik and me. She and I spent a Saturday afternoon together, going out to lunch and then to the theater. Last year, her school performed the Sound of Music so Meg was familiar with the story, and when I saw that it was coming to the Fox I couldn't resist surprising her with tickets. She loves to put together fancy outfits and borrowed some of my jewelry and lipstick for the occasion. We went to Panera for lunch because she likes their soup in a bread bowl. We enjoyed watching the musical (mostly through binoculars) and, of course, the Fox is so beautifully and unusually decorated that it is an experience in and of itself. A sweet afternoon together!

A few days later, Erik took her on a one-night camp out at Stone Mountain (which I'm sure she chose because that's what Nate had done.) Since the school year had started, some of their favorite activities were already closed for the fall, but they still had a good time.
