A marha good day

We had a very big day today. We went to the Cserkészvacsora (Hungarian Scout Dinner). This was a fundraising dinner preceded by a show where various groups performed a dance or a play and a few people gave some speeches.

Sári was the sündisznó (hedgehog) in her class's performance of A Félig Nyúzott Bakkecske (The Half-Skinned Billygoat). She had 4 lines, and performed them very well. The photos and videos I took of the other performances were nice and clear, but unfortunately the ones of my daughter all turned out blurry.

Here she is with the fox and the bear:

Here the bear is telling her to run away from the devil in the fox's hole and she responds that she'd like to try to get him out:

She does in fact succeed in getting the billygoat out of the foxhole:

While Sári was busy at her final rehearsal, Sándor and I helped set the tables in the dining room. All of the old ladies (and the young ones as well) were very impressed with how helpful he was. They made sure he knew it too!

Here he is enjoying a snack after working so hard:

Then we all enjoyed a lovely dinner of marhapörkölt, tészta, and uborkasaláta (beef stew, noodles, and cucumber salad). Of course the chocolate cake was nice too.

Keeping the tooth fairy employed

As I have recently mentioned, I am losing teeth like they are going out of style.


During yesterday's dinner, I bit into a slice of watermelon and one of my top teeth came out. This one was not quite loose enough yet, so there was a bit more blood, pain, and trauma this time. By this afternoon, I was proud of my gap and ready to show it off.

It does feel strange in my mouth now. During today's dinner, I kept asking, "did I lose another tooth?"

Oh, and it's not just my missing tooth that makes me look so cute. Before my tooth fell out I had my hair cut yesterday.
