Fun With the Kids

What's a good way to beat the winter boredom? I know - stay overnight at your mothers house with your nephews and niece! That is exactly what I did last night. Keep in mind my mother is in Florida, and I am "watching" her house and her cat while she is away. I think having the kids for an overnight visit at her house was an excellent idea.

We had fun eating junk food and watching movies in the dark. It was a big slumber party! My favorite movie of the night was Underdog. (Give me a break, the movie choices were slim) Cute dog, sweet story. We watched one of The Simpson's movies this morning, while we ate pop-tarts and played with the cat. Then we played Black-Jack and the dumb card game that the kids call "match". They kicked my butt at both games. Did I say my oldest nephew is 12? Yeah, they beat me at games....

Do you think my mother will mind that her house is trashed when she gets home?

I always say that if you want to do crafts or play messy games, you want to do that at someone else's house....
