I thought I should share the most recent photo of my class. We did a unit on the pilgrims, which incorporated geography and government, and we ultimately made a quick bulletin board. I thought it would be nice to take a picture of the kids with it...but apparently they didn't care much. Just look at those smiling faces.

Tennis masters anyone?
So a few months back there was an amazing Groupon...reduced price tickets to see four former tennis superstars slug it out. Once Sarah found out that Andre Agassi was going to be one of the four...it was pretty much a done deal, and we had to go. For those of you who don't know Andre Agassi...I'll take you waaaaay back to his glory days.
And what he looked like the night we went...
For the life of me, I don't know why he shaved those glorious locks. Perhaps he could have gone for something more like this...
Also there were Jim Courier, Michael Chang, and Ivan Lendl. It was actually a lot of fun to go. The guys didn't take the matches too seriously and they made a lot of jokes. Most importantly though, Sarah saw the legend in person. I'll leave you with a parting shot...

You be the judge.

A night at the symphony...
At least once a year Sarah and I try to go the Boston Symphony. This year we went as a part of our Christmas present to each other. The first symphony was rather strange, a contemporary piece, but it featured one of my favorite singers - Gerald Finley. Look him up. I don't have a picture because you're not supposed to take pictures during the performance...and I'm a stickler for most rules. Here's a picture of us though:)
And here's another!
The second half of the evening was amazing though. Another person to look up is Jonathon Biss - great pianist. His fingers flailed about as if they contained no bones. Smiley face. Afterward, we went to the Cheesecake Factory and had a drink. All in all it was a great night out. We hadn't been downtown in quite a while and we had one of those "Wow, we really live in Boston" moments. They are getting more rare, but it's nice when we actually like where we live.
