Nana sent the kids a huge cardboard Castle and told me to go ahead and give it to them whenever I needed. Well today was the day. It rained and poured all afternoon, and we spent three solid hours on our porch listening to the rain and coloring the Castle. Our neighbor Grace helped out.
Max did not want to stop coloring to pose for a picture!
Ella watched them the entire time from the comfort of her beloved exersaucer. It was very entertaining.
They love their Castle so much, they wanted to eat dinner in it. So we had peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and baby carrots. Hey, it's Christmas break and they're kids - if it works for them it works for me. Max begged me to put his bed in the Castle so that he could sleep there. I really thought we were headed for a tantrum, until he realized how dark it was when we turned off all the lights. He then finally agreed to go to bed in his room.
