lotsa cheese!!

cause, i didn't want to make lunch today. we decided to visit The BIG CHEESE. it was fun. and, although the kids did eat our $18.99 cheese pizza, they were all still hungry when they got home. blah... i hate food. ok... don't you HATE the dumb prize part? i do. you can't get anything good for under 5,000 tickets. dumb. but, i've figured out my revenge on the whole prize thing. i don't help. hee, hee... have you ever seen 7 kids with 16 tickets each, telling the man at the counter they want the gumball machine that cost 10,000 tickets. :) finally, after 20 minutes of... "no, i changed my mind" or, "do i have enough tickets for..." or, can i have the green star necklace, not the grean heart necklace" or, tears because everyone else in the family got the 80 ticket fake gum and even though one kid only had 16 tickets, he wanted the fake gum... hee hee. i'm pretty sure my kids were better at working out their own salvation than i would have been. leah, with no tickets, ended up with a lollipop and a tootsie roll. and, justin, who had minimal ticket ended up with a YELLOW fake gum pack... the guy even had to go to the back to find a yellow one... hee. hee.... if you want to advertise to my children, then be prepared to negotiate with them! and, LUCKILY, we were on our way out the door, when the REAL, LIVE Chuck E. came out throwing tokens and tickets... oh, the joy of RE-NEGOTIATION. love it. When the professor came home, i was pooped out and not wanting to cook dinner... so, we decided to take a DUNK in the pool... throw some kid around!! and squeeze some freezin' baby...
and now... i must blog while the PROFESSOR prepares dinner.
Did you see that? Somehow summer fun got me out of two whole meals today...
lovely, crazy, summer days...
