We had an early Thanksgiving dinner over at my mother-in-law's house on Saturday evening. We also were celebrating Kevin's brother, Ryan's, engagement to his new fiance, Monica:
The 3 older girls (there are 5 girl cousins in all!) decided to have a talent show. Mia went first, then Katherine, my niece. Then it was Chloe's turn and Miss Q decided that, no, it was actually her turn. Too funny... I do wish that Chloe had gotten her turn to do her cartwheel, but she just became really shy after Quinnlan went (and stole her turn, in her words).
Then, the funniest part of all was that Sheila gave all the girls Thanksgiving gifts. So sweet. The first gift was a set of classic Christmas DVDs. The next gift was...wait for it...The Elf on the Shelf. No, I'm not kidding (even though Chloe wishes I was). She did OK, but she did come to me and (standing sideways being 5-year-old-inconspicuous) say, "She's not going home with us, right, Mommy?"
"No, she is not coming home with us. She's going right back up to the North Pole. Don't you worry."
