Deck the Walls

Of great excitement today are the tables and chairs that I am slowly dismantling and storing… they were up for last night’s Bunco bash. Mmmm-mmm, it was quite the shindig... Food, chocolate, mindless dice games, and lots of chatterin' mamas. And more chocolate. Did I mention there was chocolate? It was a fun and loud (possibly a side effect of the aforementioned chocolate?) night with the gals!

The kids have wanted to eat at Moma’s Bunco Tables. They’ve wanted to color at them. They’ve done little projects at them. So, since the wily monkeys have been easily entertained (and, thus, quieted) by the folding card tables, the folding card tables have maintained residence in the family room. Because I’m sure that the lure of sitting in folding chairs will soon disappear, the chairs themselves will soon disappear as well. As soon as Monkey Daddy gets home, I’m sure things will have made the grand move to the garage.

I walked through the room to discover one little Spider-ManMonkey reading (not at but) on the table. I discreetly snapped a picture then made my presence known and told him to move his buns!

This same little monkey, Blessing #3, has decorated the wall by his bed with newspaper cut-outs. He had a bit of help from B#2, but their cooperative effort was really quite impressive. Mind you, he’s only four, so I thought the large Spidey mask watching over his slumber was pretty cute… though, I’m not quite sure what to think about the Queen or the car salesman or the roof specialists or the hairdressers.
