Tent Mode

 I really love Saturday mornings that are not filled with the sound of cartoons, but are filled instead with the sounds of kids playing, laughing, talking to each other and getting along!  This morning, we are in "tent mode"!  Tent Mode is when one or more rooms in my house are almost so full of tent you cant walk through them and suddenly all pillows and blankets, are now rocks, carpet, walls, cages, curtains and other miscellaneous items.
 There is snakes and eggs being cooked and the book "10 Little Fairies" is (according to Zach) about killing off fairies by different kinds of animals and princesses that are really evil, and Faith laughs and laughs, saying "Nuh Uh!" (she knows the real words to that book by heart!).  Molly is their FIERCE monster dog, that eats other monsters alive! 
What has made tent building more fun and easier than before is Zach tent kit that he got for his birthday from Aunt Stacey, she put together a tote bag full of two different sheets with grommet holes on the corners, along with shoe strings, nylon rope, wooden clothes pins and even suction cups to make some really large and awesome tents!  Zach and Faith have loved this gift!  Who am I kidding, I love this gift!
