You're Gonna Play With This Toy...

Enough is enough! I am finally to the point we are sorting and getting rid of *grin* We have spent 20 years collecting and we have done a fine job of filling our house...and our storage shed...and a rental unit...get the idea?? Anyways...Yesterday we MADE the kids play. We took them to the park and flew kites and did stomp rockets. Stevie and Missy got tired of the rockets pretty quick so off they went to freecycle! The kites have to wait for another day--we THOUGHT we had enough wind *smile* Stevie got bored pretty quick and decided to walk home--anyone need a teenager? We ended up actually beating him home LOL! I let him keep walking--drove right past him--figured his attitude might be better when he got home!






The kids figured we were done having mandatory fun (a phrase they are coming to hate!) but OH NO...Mom has more in store! We made them try out that "SUPER COOL OH I WANT IT Hot Wheels Splash Toy" (which is now up on ebay--so you know how much they really loved it!)

They really did try to sneak upstairs away from a derranged mom...who was on a warpath with STUFF...but she found them before they had a chance. For anyone who has been to my house--you KNOW how MANY board games we have *smile* (a HUGE metal shelf FULL of them) so that was my next focus...For the next two hours--they played game after game with their dad! All we played was JUST Harry Potter games--good grief--how many versions can there be? Well, we played FOUR...and the kids ended up getting rid of all four of them! Ebay is a wonderful thing! LOL!! Check out that look on Missy's face...not sure she is have too much FUN during MANDATORY FUN time!
