Lena and Mark got here Saturday afternoon! We enjoyed a visit to Danzinger Winery before heading over to Arcadia for Ashley for the Arts! Ashley Furniture puts on a great fundraiser to support humanity! This year, The Beach Boys played on Friday, and Ingrid Michaelson was scheduled for Saturday. We got to Memorial Park in Arcadia, bought our $5.00 wristband, had a drink, and decided to head over to the amphitheater to get seated early. We were pretty excited about our seats (general admission). About 5 minutes after we sat down, a guy got on the microphone and said, "In case you haven't heard, Ingrid Michaelson has cancelled to be with her sick mother." We were pretty bummed, but totally understood. So, we drank and ate and watched some hot air balloons.
Kris made me proud too! There was a guy near the hot air balloons with his daughter. Apparently, he saw his ex that he broke up with him the week before with another guy. He went nuts and was yelling at her and the boyfriend while his daughter (maybe 6 years old), watched on. It was such a sad moment. Kris stepped in (although I thought he might get punched) to try to calm the guy down. In the meantime, the ex and her new man walked away, while Kris talked with the guy about the most important girl in his life (his daughter). The guy started crying and gave Kris a hug.
We headed to Alma after that and had a few drinks at the local establishments. A great night spent with my sister and brother-in-law despite not seeing Ingrid. Hopefully next year!
