mein opa und thanksgiving

while i'm on the topic of holidays, i'll post about thanksgiving since i didn't at the time. my opa was here visiting from california.


thanksgiving was at my house and i must admit that i enjoy making a big meal for everyone. i forgot to get a picture (starting to sound familiar, right?) of the table before we started eating, but here's the gang at the table.



gracie (with some help from lily) made her apple pie and i LOVED using my pomegranate linens that i won.
pat is modeling the apron for me.

quotables

"is that lily holding baby lily?" -lily's response when i showed her a picture of gracie holding her when lily was a baby.

"drama class is actually a lot of fun." -gracie (this is only humorous in that grace seemed surprised by how much she likes drama class. this from my child who we refer to as "a drama queen" when she is not around.)

"mom, you can go with my teacher and i'll stay home with japie and evan. daddy can go to work, and i'll be the mommy" -lily, in response to learning that she would be going to preschool next year instead of this year.

"mom, if you don't get rid of that smell soon, you're going to have to buy a new car." -gracie when it took me a couple of days to clean out my car after returning from a road trip.

"mommy, they have dress-ups for you!" -lily while walking by the prom dress section at macy's.

"i said the prayer "last"-erday." -lily's replacement word for "yesterday."
