Okay, this is one of those blogs where I'm really glad to say I'm a dad to a boy (not that a girl wouldn't be bad)
I took my father and my son to Worthen Arena this evening to watch the Harlem Globetrotters. All I can say is that is was so much fun to watch not only my son laughing but my dad too. It was a really cool moment to be able to share.
Of course the boy wanted a t-shirt and a headband(?) I got that for him. ($35!) Then about halfway into the second quarter, he wanted a basketball. Well, I just shelled out an additional 12 bucks for soda and popcorn so I was a little short. I told him that I would think about. Next thing I know Dad is getting him a basketball. We got autographs from some of the players, the coach, and the mascot "Globie." The boy absolutely insisted on getting his picture taken with Globie. Go figure. Anyway, so glad to have taken him and dad. It was a really special time for us all.

Todd, that's so cool that you could share that with the older and younger generation. It made me think about when I was 10 and my dad and grandfather took me to a number of taverns in Wisconsin on a big family trip. Of course I had cokes the whole afternoon, but to see the different local watering holes and the atmosphere of them (very different from what bars are like around here!) was very special. I still have vivid memories of that day!
