What a week! We did the most amazing thing last night. We took Eva to see So You Think You Can Dance Live! The top ten competitors of Season 16 were performing at a theater about an hour away from us, and we have had tickets for months.
Eva wanted to get all dolled up in her finest to show respect for the occasion and the performers, so my husband and I followed suit. We were definitely the most stylish folks in attendance.
We had a fabulous time. I cannot tell you how entertaining the show was- certainly way beyond my expectations. The group must have put on 30 different dance numbers, complete with total costume changes. It was simply terrific.
We had a tired little princess by the time we got home, which was an hour way past her bedtime. It looks like she simply melted away, leaving behind her party dress, shoes and tights. She just stepped out of everything and fell into bed!
In other news, I have been decluttering, organizing books, clearing spaces and generally trying to get ready for the Christmas decorating to come next week. I am hosting a very small Thanksgiving dinner, but still have to cook all the usual dishes, even though there will be only four of us. Hope to share more next week.

Eva is so grown up and beautiful! LOL about her “melting away” out of her clothes and falling into bed!
Our Thanksgiving is being turned on its head and we’re having pot roast and scalloped potatoes instead of turkey and dressing. Rebels! 🙂

That’s a beautiful-already-growing-up picture of Eva! Time is flying by & it’s so nice that you took her to a show that she’ll always remember! You two are wonderful grandparents for your little princess! You should frame the ‘before & after’ pictures for her to display when she has a house of her own!

What a beautiful young lady. Would you please, please tell her not to grow up too fast. I love her beautiful dress with shoes to match. Her eyes appear green in the pic too.
I know it was a magical evening and one that none of you will soon forget. It looks like the clock struck midnight and the evening was over! PJ’s and bed.

1) I LOVE that show…it’s the only ‘reality’ t.v. I watch. The guy that won this season is just awesome!
2) Eva looks so lovely all dressed up!
3) Make sure there is wine while you are cooking….I justify opening a bottle of champagne by 2:00 p.m. bc I’m cooking.
Have a lovely holiday…can’t wait to see your tree up. ;p
