What in the world?


Today when I came home from work the first thing Madyson did was take me to the fridge. She opened it up and showed me this dish that looked like some leftovers. There was a hole poked through the middle of the foil. She was all excited and told me to stick my finger in the "stuff" and tell her what it felt like.

(Ya know when you have those halloween games and you stick your hand in a bag and at the bottom of it is spaghetti, pudding, or something gross, and you think it is real disgusting, that is what she was doing.)

She says with a huge freckled smile, "Dad is that gross!?!?!?" What was I suppose to say, "no?" Of course it was gross, it was DISGUSTING!, anything to put a smile on her face. :)

Later that night Maria pulled it out of the fridge and told me what it was. It is a mixture of instant rice, cinnamon, glue, water, and halloween cake sprinkles. I looked at Maria a little dumbfounded, (yes, a little more then I usually do) and I said, "how in the world did you not know what they were doing?" These items are spread all over the kitchen. A second after I asked the question, I had my answer. DUH Ryan, this isn't Maria's fault this is Stephanie Meyer's fault!


I'm sure many of you will understand this. Mrs (Sister) Meyer comes out with a new book, the Beasley family loses our mother until she's done with the thing. 754 pages and 3 days later we finally have our mother back tonight.

So there you have it Mrs Meyer, a Madyson Paige Beasley goolash special suprise.

*Disclaimer* So I don't get in trouble, I did check with Maria throughout the day to make sure the kids were okay. They were of course dressed, cleaned, fed and alive. Sometimes happy, sometimes sad, half the time fighting, half the time playing nicely. Maria deserve some serious ME TIME, so as long as the kids are alive when I get home, I'm good. :)

That is funny i love it. I am so excited that you are done with the book. I hate that i am so tired now I can't stay up late to read the book. Even when i am awake Reve likes to shut my book after two seconds. I even tried to sit on my bed that is on risers and he has now learned to climb on it to shut my book. So it is taking me some time this time.

I'm sorry to say she inherited that from her mother! I'm proud of my grandkids to be so creative.
Love,
Grandma Hall

Yummy dinner! I understand Maria, I took my book camping and once the kids were asleep I would stay up with the flashlight in the tent to read...it took me 5 nights to finish by flashlight :)
But sadly as we were hiking I could "see" werewolves and vampires running through the forest :)
