We have to give a hearty thank you to Joellen's sister Naomi (Gnome, as I like to call her) and another to Gizelle and the Marr family for making last night possible. Jo and I went out for a night on the town for the first time since Asher was born. Gnome purchased us concert tickets to go see one of our favorite bands / artists named Teitur (pronounched "tighter") at the Doug Fir Lounge in Portland. We left Asher with the Marrs and yes, it's true what they say... it's kind of tough to leave him that first time, but Gizelle said he did great and I'm sure he had lots of fun. I know we did!
We had a free dinner certificate for McCormick & Schmicks so we stopped up there on our way to the show. The concert wasn't scheduled to start until 9:00 PM so we didn't actually make it home until around 2:00 AM this morning which is something neither of us has done too much of lately. I guess you get out of the habit of being up all night :)
So again a big thanks to Gnome & Gizelle for a fun night out yesterday. Today, we finish moving the last of our stuff out of the old place. All the big stuff is moved... now, we just have to take care of a million odds and ends. It's amazing how much stuff we pick up along the way through life :)

We had a great time too! I emailed Mark the video that I took of Asher. It's kind of hard to send it through email. It gets all grainy and small. But if you guys want the original, I can always burn you a copy or something.
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that my voice is quite loud in the video. But Asher did his fair share of jabbering. He's so cute!!!!

Yay! I'm glad you guys had fun! What did you think of the show? He was definitely quirky, huh? :)

He was a bit quirky, yeah. But the music was a lot of fun! I liked his personality and it was nice and laid back. I didn't realize he was from the Faroe Islands... Thanks again sis! It was a super good time :)
