Yesterday we attended a pre Oktoberfest celebration at our local German resturant. There was live oompah music, lots of great food, and quite a few people came dressed up in their lederhosen and dirndls, including David and Eliza. They were so cute together. Eliza was the center of attention in her dirndl, which we bought in Oberammergau on our trip to Germany this past Easter. She enjoyed the music while we enjoyed good beer and home made German food.
Eliza was laughing her head off last night which reminded me of this video I took when she was 6 months old. I never get tired of watching it.
This summer David went on his yearly trek to Valle Crucis, North Carolina to teach at Dr. John Turners Jink and Diddle Fiddle School. This was David's sixth year teaching, and as always he had a great time. About 45 students attended this year, some students having only been playing for a matter of weeks, others were veteran Jinker's having played for many years. Classes were taught, faux competitions were had, and much laughter was made. We look forward to seeing many Jinker's this October at the Richmond Highland Games.
We had a lot of fun Thursday taking Eliza swimming with her friend Scott. It was his first time swimming and he took right to it! We have taken Eliza swimming several times this summer. She loves to splash around, and is even able to propel herself around the pool by kicking in her starfish floaty.
