Today is the girls' 19th birthday! M turned 19 12 hours before A, which is of course sort of weird and prompts questions about "real" ages, etc.. She celebrated in Taiwan with her friends. Two of them took her on a treasure hunt around the city and then a bunch of them met up for dinner for conveyor belt sushi. A has had a few celebrations over the course of the weekend – a party Friday night to celebrate the end of studio classes, a bottomless brunch yesterday, a girls night last night. And today she and Delphy and Kristy are having a fancy dinner in NY. I am heading up to NY to bring her back home, and may meet them for dinner or a drink. I just want to hug A on her bday, and can't wait to hug M when she is home in 2.5 weeks!!

HAPPY 19TH BIRTHDAY TO THE GIRLS! 

(How is that possible?)

Back at the ranch, N had a great baseball game yesterday. Walkoff win over the top team in the league, who had been undefeated. N had a double and a single and pitched a one-run inning. He was excited! Oh and he lost a tooth yesterday.

Dad is heading to Dubai today for a week. Imogene will hold down the fort until I am back.
