Thanksgiving and Stuff!

It has been a busy busy few weeks!

Yesterday was Thanksgiving and we had a great day doing nothing but eating, sleeping and relaxing! On the menu was turkey, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, caesar salad, biscuits, marshmellow salad, cranberry, stuffing, and gravy! Yummy! For dessert there was homemade apple and pumpkin pie, plus homemade vanilla and mint chip ice cream!
Last week Malia found out that she was cast as a special part in her ballet school's end of the year production which is a big honor for her and very exciting!

Also last week Mara filmed a GE commercial on the Paramount Lot (although Brad wasn't working that day!). It was a scene where she was playing a woman in Ancient China.

Nuvo Dance Competition and Convention






This weekend was Malia's first dance competition and convention. She performed one solo and three group pieces. All of the dances won gold medals and she also got a scholarship for being outstanding in ballet class! It was a great weekend and Malia and all her friends had a great time getting to run around the Hyatt Resort! On Halloween, they had a pizza party and then spent the night swimming in the pool! How they had the energy after 10 hours of dancing is a mystery!


Here's a link to some additional pictures. Hopefully I'll have some more pictures posted soon!
