Simple Pleasures
(Translate: cheap amusements)
Two kids, six feet of space, one broken window shade, a few blocks, and a few dozen marbles. One point for each marble you roll into your opponent's box.
Very creative! So would that be Science class? teehe. I'm with you too, I think we took a vacation along the way somewhere and forgot to get back - only I think it's mostly my fault. We just super cleaned Wednesday, and the house already looks like a mess & I'm too tired to do anything about it. I think a nap is in order.
lol! A nap is always a good solution, I mean, <i>procrastination</i> method! It's like if you go to bed maybe it will all be gone when you get up, right?
Now the cheap kids are playing capture the flag with marbles. I haven't quite figured it out... but they're having a great time.
And I gave away our nesting boxes! Maybe I can get them back and give this a try or find something else. My youngest came home with a bag of marbles, a present from church last night. :-)
that is funny!!!!! lol! Who is playing elizibeth????
