On Saturday, Finn had Elena over to play and later went to Rowan's house. By the expressions on their faces in the picture above, you can see that Elena and Finn had a great time. They played a game called "not sharing" or "gimme that" for a while. Finn also had lunch while Elena played by herself. He's a great host.
After lunch and playtime, Sarah and I took the kids on a walk to fountain square which was packed with people who were there for the skating, shopping, Santa, and fireworks. We took some pictures in front of the big tree and made our way back home.
After Elena's dad came by to pick her up, we made our way up to Dayton for a hockey game followed by dinner at Rowan's. The hockey team won again bringing their record to 6-2-1.
Finn and Rowan played the same games together on the floor in the kitchen. After a while the boys got tired and went to bed.
Sarah and I often talk about our memories of what the adults might have been up to after the kids went to bed. In our young minds, at this point the night gets crazy. Clowns appear, games begin and endless amount of candy is thrown around.
Now on the other side, we see that it is much more mundane. The parents ate lemon squares and agreed that we were tired. After trying to prolong the evening, we gave up, scooped up the boy, and went home.

Hah! This is almost the same blog post that I did today. I guess great minds think alike...
Nice time we'll arrange for clowns, games, and candy.
