Thanksgiving Saturday dinner






Well, this was our third one since we moved to Sopron. This time we didn't have AS many people come, due to the fact that some friends we'd invited couldn't make it. Still there were 13 children running about. The interesting thing was that the ages of the kids were older than before. Three four-year-olds, and all the others were older. I suppose not only ours, but our friends' children are getting bigger, too. So the atmosphere was quite different, instead of boys chasing girls it was girls teasing the boys, and trying to impress them.

The funny story about the evening was, that of course the children did not really want to eat dinner (Patrick only had stolen brownies and other pastries), just picked at the food so they'd have more time to play. As the last guests were leaving I heard this big scream form the kids' room. I honestly thought there's bones broken, and when I ran in to see what's happening, Patrick's saying his tummy hurts because he's hungry. And a few minutes later Kevin starts crying (but I mean really crying with tears) he's hungry, too. So Kimo and I just looked at each other, thinking we haven't had a more fully packed table in a year, and our kids are screaming for hunger. ;)
