We took the Greats (see previous post if you don't know who the Greats are) into the city today and had a marvelous time showing them all of our local haunts.

It's good to see the folks getting out to see the sights. I bet Elyse and Felicity wore their "Greats" out today with all their touring!
Hope you are all having a wonderful time.
That bottom picture is my favorite! So adorable. Only my favorite of that post because the one of the two on the same stool is awesome! I love how you can really see Elyse's red hair! Ahh!!! We can't wait to see you again. And soon, we will be done playing phone tag. We love you all!!
Glad to see you guys had a good time. What a great memory for you all! I agree with Marianne.. the last picture is a keeper!!! Can't wait to catch up. Call you later this week.
