Friday night: pizza and a movie


At the DeVries household, we have family night each Friday night. Actually, we go out to eat every Tuesday night, have pizza and a movie each Friday night, have a barbecue each Saturday night, have sweet rolls and frappucinos each Sunday morning, and go out for ice cream each Sunday night after church. This blog's pictures are primarily from this past week's Friday night pizza/movie night. We got Shrek the 3rd and Amazing Grace. We are beginning the movie as I type. Hopefully they'll be worth watching.


This past week, Michael and I went with Michael's tuba teacher to a Boston Brass concert. Michael's teacher was roommates in college with Andrew Hitz, the tuba player for the Boston Brass. We had a chance to meet him and speak with him. He is an excellent tuba player and the Boston Brass put on an excellent concert. Michael was truly inspired as could be seen by his intensified practice sessions the days following. (The picture was taken on my cell phone since I forgot my camera; sorry it's not too clear.)


(So far, Shrek the 3rd is pretty good!)


I also had the chance to go down to Fort Logan National Cemetery on Veteran's Day in South Denver and visit the graves of my Grandma and Grandpa Norden; these were my Mom's parents who passed away in the late 1990s. My Grandfather was a WWII veteran; I have his WWII army jacket framed on my study wall. Anyway, both Noel and I have great and fond memories of our grandparents; it was a privilege to down and pay mine some respect in retrospect.


Hope you are doing well and that you are growing in the grace and knowledge of Christ! Don't forget to look at the pictures at the bottom of the blog!
