The Theatre, the theatre....


So once a week DD3 spends a little time with her grandparents. This week I call Momo (grandma) to see how it's going. Here's how the conversation goes:

Momo: We're playing a game called O'Malley. Do you know it?
Tracy: I think so. What are you doing?
Momo: Well, Poppa (grandpa) is saying, "Crazy man, crazy." I am saying, "What are you cats doing on our side of town?" DD3 is singing and saying a lot of other things.
Tracy: Oh, that's not really a game, it's a musical she's been learning from DD6. (*Aristocats*)



I love that my girls are passionate about learning and sharing the experience with so many people. I am thankful that my parents will "play along" with a game they don't really understand and enjoy it!

**Later when DH picked her up, Poppa asked him if he knew "Crazy man!" Too funny.

Our parents on a date...

DH and I have had our first official date of the year!!! Talking over a quiet dinner and hanging out at the bookstore were pretty exciting for us.
Our children have other ideas about a date for Mommy and Daddy. At lunch today, DH asked DD3 what she thought we would do tonight. She replied, "Watch scary movies and eat chocolate-chip cookies!"
Over dinner, DH joked that we should tell her that we ate in the living room and jumped on the furniture....

(Thanks Momo and Poppa for taking the girls tonight.)
