Weekend Guests

Last Friday evening we welcomed to Orlando Vernon's brother, Richard, his wife, Susan, and their daughter, Morgan. We enjoyed dinner together at a Pizzaria Uno. Morgan made her own pizza to be baked for her to eat. In this pic she is wearing the plastic apron that was supplied. In front of her on the table is the pizza dough spread with sauce. She hasn't added the cheese yet. Doesn't she look pleased to be making her own pizza? While Morgan wasn't wearing her new Minnie Mouse hat, Richard put it on his head and posed.

There was a balloon artist in the restaurant. Look at what he made to wear on his head, some kind of alien. He's making something for Morgan to wear. She let him decide after he asked her questions like her favorite color. Can you tell what he's making?

Morgan approved of it - a castle!

Here's another view. Notice he drew on the balloons with red marker to make it look more like a castle.

Now her pizza has arrived and she's ready to eat it.

Here's the bee I asked the guy to make for me. Cute, isn't it? I chose a bee because Deborah in Hebrew means "bee".

Saturday morning they left our house by 8:30 to spend the day at the Magic Kingdom. Morgan is dressed for it. She took her autograph book along and got quite a few signatures of the Disney characters. It was perfect weather and even a full moon that night.

Sunday noon we ate at Cheescake Factory and celebrated Vernon's birthday a day early. He doesn't look very happy in this photo but the picture I took when he was smiling didn't turn out. He also could look unhappy because we were singing to him. Ha!

Our guests returned home Monday morning. Since Morgan is home-schooled, they didn't have to leave on Sunday or have her miss a day at public school.

We didn't celebrate Vernon's birthday on Monday because he didn't feel good that night. In fact, he slept several hours after getting home from work. We hope to celebrate with friends this weekend. Maybe I can get a happy picture of him to show you.
