Thanksgiving weekend highlights:
1) Spent Thanksgiving in Las Vegas. For dinner, Grant and I thought it would be a fun surprise to take the kids to see the Tournament of Kings at the Excalibur.
Tournament of Kings is a dinner show with dancing ladies, knights in armor, jousting, etc.
Tournament of Kings is NOT a male strip show.
Maile: Did you guys just buy tickets for Thunder From Down Under?
Me: Huh-wha? Um. No. We got tickets for Tournament of Kings.
Maile: Okay, good because I was going to be like, "Really, Mom? That show is like totally inappropriate."
I know I'm a bad mom, but even I know you shouldn't take your daughters to Thunder from Down Under until they're at least ten, right?
Anyway, we get there, and they bring out the food, which is supposed to be eaten with your fingers.
Maile: Really? Are you kidding me? No forks. What is this, the middle of evil times?
Me: You mean medieval?
Maile: That's what I said.
2) Kea's soccer tournament, which was actually a pretty sad state of affairs. She was guest-playing for a team, and in three games, the team scored zero goals. Nada. Zip. Fortunately Kea could care less about winning, so she had a good time.
3) Friend Sam was in town!
This never happens. Whenever we go to St. George, he and his family always come up to where we live, and we end up missing each other. Even better news was that friend Ben and his family happened to be there at the same time so we all got to go to dinner together.
So how was your Thanksgiving?





We were next door at the Luxor buffet for Thanksgiving... Then we went to The Wall concert.
ReplyDeleteI knew you guys were there, and I was wondering if we would run into you. Too bad it wasn't warmer.
ReplyDeletewe're glad we could go to dinner with you guys in st. george. you realize that we live like 6 minutes away from each other up here, right? :)
ReplyDeleteI know. It's sad that we had to get together in St. George. But if we're around for Christmas, we'll have the annual party at our house.
