We celebrated Mike's 25th birthday at Brasserie Beck. I was a little concerned that Olivia might be intimidated by the food. I shouldn't have been. She ate most of our "shared" chicken dish and then gobbled a mess o' Mike's mussels. She doesn't like french fries - unless they have parsley. And the rest of us each got one bite of the chocolate cake for dessert before she finished it. She was such a charming, grown-up dinner companion.
We wandered over to the mall to watch the rehearsal for the Capitol Fourth. It was much more low key than it would be the next day. Kids were running around, doing cartwheels and playing tag.
Jimmy Smits was charming, although it was confusing sometimes since he was being filmed as if it were the fourth.
We heard Reba McEntire, American Idol David Archuleta, John Schneider and classical pianist Lang Lang as well as cannons, cannons and cannons.
