Thanksgiving Eve

I wish the flash hadn't washed this photo out.  You can barely make out "ORYGUN," on a Texas plate, with the Oregon Ducks license plate holder.  I think someone misses their home state!  We parked next to this SUV when we took Jade to see "Big Hero 6," a Disney animated film which I totally recommend.  The film was playing at the very, very upscale IPIC theatre at the Domain.  One of the seating options is a couch with your very own pillow and blanket.  We chose "regular" seats, which were as wide and cushy as recliners.

Catching rainbows.  We have a sun-powered prism in the kitchen window that turns and causes rainbows to fly around the room for a magical half hour or so in the afternoon.  I used to tell Jade those were the rainbow fairies visiting us every afternoon.  Sadly, she's outgrown that story, understanding that the prism divides the light.  But I still think of the rainbows as fairies!

Jade helped Papa Tom repair the handrail out front.
