For our Family Night activity we decided to play the candy bar game!! All you need is a candy bar wrapped in foil, a fork and knife, two dice, oven mittens, a scarf and a hat. Everyone takes a turn rolling the dice, when ever someone rolls "doubles" they then get to put on the mittens, scarf and hat and start digging into the candy bar with the fork and knife, that is, until the next person rolls a double, then play freezes and everything needs to be taken off and passed to the next player who rolled a double. It can get pretty frustrating having a piece of chocolate oh so tantalizingly close to your mouth only to have someone else roll a double and you have to drop it all.
Of course with the little kids you need to ease up on the rules a bit. Tessa liked getting dressed up!
Kimbyl seemed like a natural....
...as evident by the successful bite!
Tessa kinda bipassed the whole utensil rule, but thats okay, she has a small mouth...
We had a lot of happy, satisfied, chocolate-covered chillin's at the end of it all.
We had to go buy some new lunch-boxes for the girls. Here is an excited Kimbyl with her's...
....and an ecstatic Emma with her's. Boy every little thing with going back to school causes a lot of excitement.
This picture isn't really related to anything, but Max was pretty happy that "He found it!!!"
But what has gone over even better (with the kids that is) is the cardboard box that the dryer came in. Here is Tessa enjoying the window.
Of course the kids did their best to decorate their new "home".
This particular cardboard house came with a stylish circular window, a hard to find feature.
