imagination

what happens when your left home with a 2 and 4 year old, no tv, wii, or computer? Couch fishing, building things with couch cushions and a little imagination......

it all started with Abby digging for stuff in the cushions, while i watched like a terrible babysitter... she was slowly finding polly pockets, cars, and a old candy pumpkin (YUCK!) we took it all out to see what we had found and it was quite a bit. we had all the cushions off the couch, why not make a fort? so thats what we did.....

we covered are small 'fort' with a blanket and took a few pictures inside, til i knocked it down... yes me, myself, and i knocked down our fort. after much thought, i asked how about we build a cave?

going into building a cave takes a lot of thought, at first we were going to tape together throw pillows, but that plan got thrown out. then it clicked, 'all i have to do is get the chairs right...' and soon the cave was built. the world famous explorers endured the long crawling trek, and soon we reached then end, and took a few minutes to document our amazing journey with some pictures,the a rumble, and boom, and we raced out so that we wouldn't be crushed....

after our cave came down, we built our boat. of course this again, took much thought as to how i would construct it... but it came easier than our cave thats for sure. 10 pillows later we climbed aboard the S.S pillow with high hopes she'd make her destination. we went threw nights of rain and more rain, and soon, our ship lost a side, then the other. we had to make a getaway. with a piece of our boat, we soon were sailing without a captian, food, our water, just a couple pillows and a blanket. did we reach any land. well that question will have to go unanswered my dear friends...

after all this building, you can believe we were hungry and tired, so we ate and slept....

sillies, who'd sleep when the suns out??
