Dragons Dragons Everywhere

This weekend, thanks to a very generous Big Brother, Domonic and I and a bunch of other Bigs and Littles went to see the movie Eragon, a story of courage and folly packed with dramatic action - from high flying fire breathing dragon rides to fierce battles fought with strength of will and magic. At the root of it all are the efforts of a young man destined to save his oppressed countrymen. It was a great event and it is always wonderful to see other Bigs and Littles having a good time as well!

Superbowl XLI

This weekend was Superbowl weekend and Domonic and I decided to see the big game on the big screen, well the silver screen actually. We went to the Alamo Downtown where they showed the game in the movie theater. Domonic was rooting for the Colts and I was all about the Bears. What an incredible game! We also loved the commercials and there was even a spot promoting Big Brothers Big Sisters so we had to cheer for that one!

A Winter Walk

Over the weekend, Domonic and I visited the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center for their plant sale and winter walk with professional arborist Guy LeBlanc. We learned lots of things about native trees, made some arts and crafts, saw lots of beautiful plants and even bought a few to take home. And Domonic took lots of pictures of the lovely winter day.
