Dinner Party

We were invited to a friend's house for dinner last night - and since both she and her husband are teachers, they wanted Wm to come along. Wm was AWESOME for his first grown up dinner party! They had an adorable pug named Boris with googly eyes and a snorty nose. Wm was very taken with Boris and let him give him kisses and sat on the couch and petted him. The only time he wasn't 100% sure was when Wm was given a cookie and Boris reeeeeally wanted some of that cookie. Wm stood across the room from Boris stuffing his cookie in as fast and he could and giving the dog the side-eye while Boris sat on the couch, staring longingly at the cookie and snorting away. My friend's husband is from Manchester, England, so Wm was excited to hear his accent. And, they were all very impressed with Wm's English accent!!

They are also vegans and were nice enough to make a special peanut butter sandwich for Wm. The food was remarkably good!! Steve, who was very nervous about it, even admitted it was very good! However, it did not cover him and the minute we got in the car, he goes, "I AM STARVING." Ha!

Wm was on his super best behavior and they kept commenting on how cute and smart and funny he was. Proud mama!! They also loved his Sherman glasses. Of course. EVERYONE does. Because they are awesome. Even Wm has come around!! He says they are more comfortable. WINNING.

Wm is at the zoo with Summer Clubhouse today. He is SO excited!! They went to a MetroPark yesterday and Wm had a tick on him! EEEK!!! But today should be the perfect day for the zoo - abundant sunshine and a high of 80. Wm did a persuasive paper for school on why zoos are bad, but he said he is OK with going because "they also do some good things like breeding endangered animals." But, he said that the "animals know they are in captivity and do not act the way they would in the wild…even if they are born there." He said he will keep his zoo-pionions to himself today and just have fun with his amigos!
