Falalalal - Lalalalala!

Okay, this is the best time of year to hear caroling. And, for me this includes a lovely choir performance by my Isa. She sang at Retirement/Assisted Living home. PS Honey, when it's time me to have some assistance send me here? Heck, I'll take a vacation here. It's amazingly organized and super nice. Just sayin'!



All of those little girls are not looking at fish. They are catering to Madi and totally letting Madi push them away when they get too close. Yelling her famous "Ehhh!" The girls thought it was hilarious and loved being around just to hear her babble about the fish.






Warming Up...on the far left is one of Isa's co-teachers, M. She goes by M. Isa and I had to hunt down her name to find out what M meant (we thought it was going to be some hideous name) it's, Monica. I like that name! We have yet to know why she goes by M. But, M is very mysterious so (as in M for mysterious) leave it to Isa and to become detectives. :)



Ms. Jensen and her funky bunch.



Okay, like I said...would not be assisted living here. Seriously. How neato is it that they get to dine with chilled water in wine glasses every night? That's like a once a year thing (okay maybe twice) in our house. New Years and Valentine's Day the kids get to drink apple cider out them. And, the dinner...my kids were asking me to have dinner there. WOW! You want to have dinner in a "cafeteria" at a Retirement Home? For reals...it was 5pm and it smelled mighty delicious. Stir Fry with an eggroll (Dev kept saying "Mmmm, I love eggrolls!") OR Pork Roast with mashed potatoes...yeah, I had to continuely tell them "No, we can't eat here. Just munch on the treat Mommy brought for you." Fancy, right?



Look at those Stir Fry plates...yummy, right?




This is the kitchenette in their activity room which was across the hall from the "cafeteria" - let's be real it's a dining room. Nice, right?





Caught Nanny off guard again - oops! What a fun activity room - they even put offered to put on a movie for my kids. I told them not to because the performance was 30 minutes and they'd then for sure have to feed us dinner. :) They even made goody bags as a thank YOU for coming. She made sure to give my little ones goody bags too - they were amazing here. Just the sweetest place - the kids caroled around the residences and every one was appreciative.



One guy said to the activity director "you're not charging us extra for this singing performance this month, are you?" HA! Totally reminds me of what my Husband would say at his age. I'll listen to these kids but don't charge me extra this month!






You didn't think I would go the whole post without a video...now, the first one I wanted to upload was not cooperating so hopefully this one is just as good. PS in case you didn't know, my daughter is the one on the bottom on the right. You know the cutest little choirette there? Happy Holidays!
