Brother bonding

These videos were taken on my iPad so they're not great quality but yeah...

All Jacob wants to do is wrestle his brother and Alexander is mildly amused.

Mississippi Trip

Spent last week in Mississippi saying goodbye to my Pappaw and going to his funeral. Afterwards, we celebrated his life with mud and mexican food. 

Mud!

El Mariachi Loco (Mexican Restaurant) w/ Gammaw

You should have seen the floor of that place after 20 Long/Brown/Foster/Stringer/Johnson/Dillingham/Thompson Relatives were done with it!

Rest in Peace Mike Long Sr. - Heaven knows you deserve it.

St. Patty's in February

NYC

My mom and I got to go to the SCBWI Winter Conference in New York City over the weekend and we had a blast! Besides having fun at the conference itself, we went to see Wicked at the Gerswhin theater (Broadway), ate at the Hard Rock Cafe (also on Broadway) and visited the John Lennon Imagine memorial (Central Park). I also introduced my mom to adding syrups to Starbucks hot chocolate and totally blew her mind. ;-) (Ask for caramel or raspberry next time you go and discover the definition of yumminess.)

We only got one picture together because we didn't want to hand the camera off to just anybody, but Saturday night a group of 5 teenage girls came up to us and wanted us to take their picture; so we just traded.
