This is how you know we're on vacation: the kids played Little Big Planet ALL DAY LONG. And I let them. I'm horrified, but they were having so much fun together, cheering when they got to a new level, and taking time out for victory dances. Whenever one of them wandered out of the TV room, I put them to work with me on my clean-out-the-basement/figure-out-what's-wrong-with-the dryer/give-half-of-our-stuff-away project. By day's end, I was ready for an activity that didn't require remote controls for the kids or heavy lifting for me. Scott even participated cast-free!
Dying Easter eggs and making chocolate-dipped Peeps was the perfect way to end a day of loafing. Now we can have chocolate Peeps on sticks for breakfast for Xanthe's "real" birthday tomorrow. It will help soften the blow when I try to explain that her "real" birthday is the day there's no party. Or maybe we'll have to have a party...
