#HappyWorldDownSyndromeDay-3.21.2016

March 21 is World Down Syndrome Day
because of the 3.21
There are 3 copies of the chromosome 21.

World wide people wear crazy sox but Jena isn't into that.

This year we had arranged with Cold Stone's for a free ice cream for a person
with Down syndrome all day.  So we went....

Her friend joined us as well
 Hugs good bye as friends head off in different direcitons.
It was a fun ice cream stop.

We headed to Centerpoint Theatre were Jena was assigned a new task for the day.  She had to take all of the white men's shirts and divide them into dress shirts and "tuck" shirts with tucks on the front.  She did a great job.  Here are some of the tuck shirts.
This is what the costume closet looks like.  This was our first time to work in this room.  Can you see Jena way down there with the white shirts?
 FINISHED!

That night we got to stay and see "Beauty and the Beast" which is one of Jena's favorite Disney musicals.  Meantime 30 miles north Gary took his mother to see Nikki, Jena's cousin, perform in her high school performance of "Cinderella".  Both were excellent.  We just wished we all could have seen both.

Still haven't made it to see "Zootopia" yet but hoping to do that soon.  We hear it is very funny.

Hey, I think that I am got up to today. Nice.  I actually fertilized the yard today with pre-emergence and it isn't April yet.  That is a great accomplishment for me.

Enjoy your Real Easter Day this week!  Happy Easter to you all.
