Who Is Nibbling At My House

Before

After

I kept feeling like the wicked witch from

Hansel and Gretal!

The kids kept nibbling on the Gingerbread houses,

and I really can't blame them!

So yesterday I let them nibble to their hearts content,

what a mess!

They loved them and even though

I'll miss seeing their charming houses

sitting on my counter top,

I won't miss sounding like the witch

asking who is nibbling at my house!

Jenga

Jenga is a HUGE hit at our house,

Linus is a champion player

which shocks all of us

but, mostly Linus!

Last night while we heard ice falling there was a

very intense game going on between the teens.

I highly recommend this game

for lots of family fun!

A Lesson~

On Friday, someone brought candy cigarrettes onto the bus. 
It was morning, so you can imagine eating all that sugar on a bumpy school bus ride *blek*.
One little girl Morgan (age 5) announced that "cigarrettes are bad for your tonsils" (yes, she said tonsils).  Faith was disturbed and asked "what are tonsils". 
Morgan turned to Faith and opened wide showing Faith her tonsils.
At the site of Morgan's tonsils Faith got sick.........
ALL.OVER.SIMON!!!
Poor Simon!
Yet, he even saw the absolute absurd humor in the whole thing and couldn't help but crack up as he explained what happened.
The school nurse was tickled too as I showed up to gather them and bring them home for a clean up.
When Noah heard the tale he said Morgan's DARE lesson was probably better than anything the Police Dept. could have taught the kids.
I think he's right, Faith has sworn off tonsils AND candy cigarrettes!
