Julie: Both sound great. I’d really love to make it tonight, do you mind putting us on the guest list? We may not make it, but I’d really like to try to come.

Tina: I’ll ask Bette to do that before she leaves tonight. We won’t be there right at 7, but definitely before 8pm. We’ll let the baby sleep in her stroller and enjoy the evening for a bit before leaving.

Julie: Yea, I think Meredith would really love the event. She wants to get by to see the MLK exhibit, so here is our chance.

Tina: Ok so Julie Cunningham party of 3 will be on the list and we hope to see you there.

Julie: Thanks so much Tina.

Tina: It’s our pleasure.

Tina sends Bette an email asking her to add Julie and family to the guest list. The next couple of hours move quickly and Bette makes it home by 5 as promised. Tina isn’t finished working until 6:30, she makes a quick change and the family heads out to their local diner for dinner before heading to the museum. As suspected Angelica eats her dinner really well. Tina is happy to see her eat so well after her light lunch. They finish dinner in under an hour and now finish their walk back to the museum. The guard indicates their guests had just arrived and Tina spots Julie.

Tina: Julie, wow perfect timing.

Julie: Hey good to see you again.

Bette: I’m Bette welcome to the Whitney.

Julie: Nice to meet you, this is my partner Meredith and this is our daughter Zoey.

Meredith: Hi, nice to meet you both, thanks for the invitation, we’ve never been to one of these. I didn’t realize they were family friendly.

Bette: Yes, we are working on getting out the message that the museum is family friendly. We do special family days on Sunday.

Tina: Babe, Meredith really wants to see the MLK exhibit, are you up for a private tour?

Bette: Of course, but I’m sure you don’t want to dragged through there again. How about we go to my office. Tina will stay with the babies while we take the tour. We can get through it in about 30 minutes then we can all party.
