Pittsburgh has been a very exciting and busy city for Christopher. We have truly enjoyed it here. Its a city filled with lots of things to do, terrific views, and close enough to home that we have been so lucky to have company every weekend. Opening night was a lot of fun.....Alissa was in town with us and joined us for the opening party. She was so taken by the experience of seeing Chris in the show....she cried reading the playbill before the show started which I thought was priceless. The following weekend we had Grandma Maureen, Barbara, Danielle & Joe, and Ashley and Carl. We made it to visit the Science Center which was really nice. Christopher loved having Ashley and Carl here to hang out with. While they were here we went to the Church Brewery. It is a 100 year church converted into a brewery. A little weird for me.....the bathroom is the confessional. The alter is where they brew the beer. It was an experience.
This weekend we had Aunt Kelly, Uncle Dan and some of our closest friends here. That was a BLAST!!!!! I was soooooooooo happy - when we picked up everyone at the airport I didnt even know who to run to first. Chris and I were ecstatic to have everyone here. So many laughs, too many laughs....!!! We had a party for Chris at the Hard Rock cafe and some members of the cast came to party with us. It turned out really great. Chris and his friends were up on stage singing with the band...they had the crowd going. We cannot tell you enough how much it meant to have everyone here....We miss them all already and are ready to see them again soon!
Christopher is still loving his time here, but he truly misses everyone. His friends, his family, his dog, Akari.......and his bed. LOL Oh, wait best news yet....Alexi stayed here in Pittsburgh and will be with us until Feb 23rd. She has brightened our days......
The last two weeks here in Pittsburgh will be fun and more company is expected. Christopher's fourth grade teacher is visiting (Ms. Weiss) and John/Janet Mantz.
The next stop is Toledo, Ohio and we are sure none of you are racing to visit us there.....so we will keep you posted, send pictures and see you in Atlanta.
Missing everyone A LOT,
Christopher & Melissa
