Happy Halloween. Peter is in for the procedure this morning; He’ll be put under for an hour or two and a kidney stent will be inserted. There was a little concern yesterday, because Peter has a cold and the nurse thought they might postpone the procedure — which induced temporary frustration at the prospect of a longer stay or another trip — but Dr. Laqualia said it will be fine to go ahead with it. Hopefully he’ll be able to slip into his Ninja Warrior costume later today and collect some goodies.
Stepping back to yesterday, Ty, Erika and Peter went to Toys R Us in Times Square, because there was a promotional party of some sort for The Bee Movie. I’m not going to nail all the details here, but a friend of a family member was involved with the promotion. Jerry Seinfeld is the creator and voice of the main character, so he was making an appearance. So while at the event, Peter grew tired and hungry and probably a little bored. Then the aforementioned family connection came through with a new game console for Peter (a Nintendo DS, I believe). What a treat. On top of that, they learned that Jerry Seinfeld wanted to meet Peter. So the three of them had a few minutes to hang out with Jerry alone and pick up an autograph or two. I understand that Ty made him laugh and he’s pretty proud.
Stepping back to Saturday, the benefit dinner at Legend’s was an amazing time and great success. Thanks to everyone involved: the planners, those in attendance, the bidders, the donators, etc. I can’t thank everyone individually, but all contributions of time, money, talents are special and appreciated. There was a lot of money raised and it will be put to good use. And a lot of fun was had. Also, special thanks to Perri & Carey for the live music and Beaujo’s Wine Bar & Bistro for the wine.
Greetings to The Eigner Family! What an exciting day for all of you yesterday. Now that you’re hob-nobbing with the A-List, I hope that you will still remember us little guys back here in Nisswa, MN! Best wishes for a successful procedure and as always, we’re keeping you in our thoughts and prayers.

Oh, well… excuuuussee me! Meeting Jerry Seinfeld? Now I already thought you were quite famous, big Pete- but I think your celebrity status just got bumped up a few notches! How lucky are you!!?? I sure hope mom & dad bought you something cool from Toys-R-Us!!
I hope your procedure went smooth this morning! I sure hope you didn’t have “clowns” for doctors or “witches” for nurses!! 🙂 I certainly hope you get suit up in your Ninja Warrior costume tonight!! Emily & Lily are SOOOO excited to go trick-or-treating! Emily is going as Dorothy (from The Wizard of Oz) and Lily is going as a clown (for the 3rd year in a row!!) Parker is just going to hang out with Papa & Monga in his lil’ pumpkin shirt. It’s pretty windy here today…. I sure hope my little “Dorothy” doesn’t get blown away to the land of Oz!
We pray for a quick and uneventful recovery – and of course, that you get LOTS of sweet treats tonight!
Thinking of you often, buddy!
Love, Jen, Ryan, Emily, Lily and Parker

Thinking of you today, Peter! I hope all goes easily and that you’re ready to put on your costume. And how about that Jerry Seinfeld connection…and making him laugh. Way to go Ty! That confirms what I’d hoped about Mr. Seinfeld: that underneath that entertainer is a good-hearted man. Take good care all of you!
Hey Peter,
What type of pants do ghosts wear?
BOO jeans!
Happy Halloween!
