There was a lot of screaming, a lot of tearing around the house and o by the way it was pouring rain all day so i couldn't send them outside at any point. But everyone had a great time. Nothing broke, no one cried and most kids did not want to go home when their parents came. These cookies you see here? NOT decorated by the boys, this is my work. When the boys sat down at the table to fix up their cookies there were blank cookies shaped like maple leaves, stars, snowflakes and Christmas trees. There were bowls of colored icing and 5 or 6 types of sprinkles. I am still trying to sweep up all the colored sprinkles on the kitchen floor. One boy who Graham was on the fence about inviting due to his acting up in school, poured a huge mound of icing on one cookie then dumped a mountain of sprinkles over and buried his face in the whole concoction. Even this kid's mom questioned whether he should come but despite that I like this kid.

After everyone left I picked up the Legos and other stray toys from the floor and once I vacuumed most order was restored. And those parents who said I was crazy? I noticed that they dropped their boys at the door and disappeared in a flash. Graham was sad to see everyone go but today is Thanksgiving and there will be a new crew of visitors in the house in a few hours.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!
