No Fun

When I told Bud and Sis last night that they couldn't go to school today, Sis was very upset, "But everyone will be there.  And we'll miss all the fun!"

But we're having some of our own fun today.  They woke up and immediately began singing the school birthday song, choosing friends and family's birthdays to celebrate.  Somehow the discussion turned to "animal powers"--cheetah power, bunny power, seal power.  Apparently, if you sprinkle a power on one critter it becomes another kind of critter.  Bud was turning everything into a seal.

Now we're playing picnic downstairs, camping out in the middle of the living room.  While we were eating vegetables and desserts, Sis decided it should be Halloween.  So they are closing the windows to try to darken our otherwise normally bright house.  Luckily, it's overcast today, so it's got the right gloominess for Halloween.

No telling what's next.  But at least we're not missing all the fun.
