Fancy Dinner 2011

Tonight we had our 2nd Annual Fancy Christmas dinner. Last year's fancy dinner was so fun, I couldn't wait to do it again. This year on the menu it was fancy lasagna, fancy peas, fancy rolls and fancy water, with fancy egg nog and fancy cupcakes for dessert. Delicious darling!

Keira didn't last long, she napped through most of the festivities

 

Kepler's improved on his pinkies up skills from last year

Jayna and Kepler helped Gibb make us place cards

Jayna drew a picture of her and Keira on the back of hers, since Keira didn't have one

And we ended off the night with a fancy dance again

I think that this might be our family's favourite Christmas tradition. The getting fancy part is just as fun as the dinner and dance. Some of the highlights of the night were:

1. Having a relatively peaceful dinner with everyone on their best behaviour

2.  Kepler telling me "Mommy, you're my darling." 

3. Jayna saying that it was the best night ever and asking if we could do it again tomorrow

4. Kepler asking Jayna "May I please have this dance" and bowing (with some coaching of course)

What a fun night! Once again I can't wait to do it again next year.
