I was SO excited to hear the boys this morning.  They both walked right under the dinosaurs in the dark and came into my room asking where all the dinos were.  I sent them out to hunt them down and then I heard from my youngest a huge gasp followed by wild giggling.  It made me so happy!

 

To top it off, the boys spent the next hour creating hot air balloons and airplanes out of shoe boxes.  Thank you, Lord, for fun and creative children!

HAHA this one is great!  Time to find a new planet with decidedly less meteor crashes... ^_^

The T-Rex's arms were to short to make a flying machine :(

So did we. The key is to just put the TP roll on the wrong way, so it unrolls from the back and will just spin without unrolling when swatted from the front. You still get a few layers with claw holes in them, but just not TP all over the place.

The cat that I babysit does the same thing. They put the TP on backwards as well. Bugs the hell out of me, but I'd rather deal with that than TP all over the place.

I was so happy when our current cat grew out of it so I could put it on the right way again.

Our cats never cared about toilet paper.  Now plants.... that's a whoooole other story.  :(

I can just imagine it now -

Kids: "Can we please have ice cream?"

Me: "No... the... uh.... the dinosaurs ate it all......."

My youngest has been asking when it will be HIS turn to set up the dinosaurs.  He is five.  Last night when I tucked him in I told him he could go put out the dinos.  This is what I woke up to this morning:

We all had a late night last night, so the dinos had a little break today.

It was dark when they set up for their Bird-Watching-Extravaganza.  

 

On a side note: my sister recently caught a wild heron with nothing but a big blue plastic tub...  We call her the "Bird Whisperer" because she can catch our chickens faster than anyone and she's also caught wild song birds with her bare hands.  True story.

Today, while preheating the oven to bake some cookies, I noticed smoke sneaking out...  When I opened the door I found our two largest dino pals.

 

"Who put the dinosaurs in the oven?!?"

My youngest was just playing with them... and forgot he had put them in the oven...  They're melted, curled, and deformed.  Not to mention poor T-Rex now being legless!  I'm sure he's thinking, "Why couldn't it have been my arms!?"

I'd say that it didn't go well...

Just in case any of you are worried about me damaging my childrens' psyche with this dino death stuff, you should know they've been exposed to farm life and the whole death thing already.  As a matter of fact, they were less interested in the fact that the dinos passed than they were about the frost that covered the ones who remained.  The conversation I overheard this morning went something like this:

 

"They're frosted!"

"Now we can eat the frosting!"

"Hey, don't lick your dinosaur!!"

Not willing to give up on their zombified friends, the dinos labored all evening to develop a cure.

 

My youngest thought the zombies were "creepy" and requested that I change them... He also requested that I make this "trail mix" stuff someone had given him once at school.  Pure sugar.  Bonus points to me for not actually snacking on the Zombie Cure as I put it together last night!
