Saturday evening we headed a few miles south to Waltham and Gena's cousin, Emily. She hasn't seen Emily in the last 20 years or so. We've done this several times on our trip - reconnecting with someone we haven't had much or any contact with recently - and they've all been good experiences. So we were looking forward to the evening, particularly because of Emily's well-known cooking skills!
The kids were occupied for almost four hours with Emily's bunnies. We sat in the backyard and sipped wine while the kids occupied themselves with freeze tag and bunny observation. They particularly enjoyed feeding the bunnies fresh greens that Emily had brought out for them. Two of the three bunnies are very social, but the third bunny stayed inside so as not to risk bunny fights with all of the added excitement.
We later enjoyed a lovely pasta dish and salad, followed by a yummy yogurt cake with homemade blackberry sauce. It was delicious, to say the least. Emily was a very nice hostess, the kids were well behaved, and the bunnies were very patient. A good evening all around.
