Dinner With Oma

At The New Apartment
Aug. 16, 2011

The children were excited to see Oma ...

and this was the first time they saw her apartment ...

they thought it was really small ...

and only a table to seat two ...

how was that going to work with all of us ...

We were the special guests ...

therefore we were seated in the family room in the dining area ...

James showed Oma all the friendship bracelets that they made ...

Ella took her disc of yarn and Oma helped her count the strands ...

Before dinner was served ...

 we headed out into the dining room ...

to the table where Oma usually sits with her friends for dinner ...

(Rita, Rosa and Burk)

Burk with his accordion ... entertains ... while everyone waits for their meals ...

Kurt was kind enough to take some of these photos for me ...

Back in the family room ... a delicious meal was served ...

the kids ate soup, salad, buns, chicken with mashed potatoes and mixed vegetable ...

Kurt, Oma & I had the BBQ ribs ...

I didn't think that they would have room for dessert ...

but they did ...

in fact they each chose to have 2 desserts, jello and ice cream ...

they should be fed up ... 

we'll see  how long before they asked for something else to eat ... !

We ended up going for a walk ...

after dinner ... 

along the creek behind Joseph Creek Village ...

Ella watching the ducks ...

James had a piece of bread ... to feed the ducks ...

Craig went over the bridge to the other side of the creek ... in the lush foliage ...

Oma and Kurt watching the kids play ...

We had a lovely evening ...

Craig, James, and Ella would like to go back for a visit ...
