The check is in the mail…

posted November 21st, 2007 by Shannon

My sister needed to mail us a check.
It came in a most unusual way.

The note says:
S&G,
You love me…
and don’t you forget that!

    You know, that made a huge mess. As parents you could have tried to make it all neat and tidy and gotten mad at your kids for trying to make a mess. Instead, you went with it and had a blast. I am sure they will remember the time they played with the confetti snowstorm inside. What great parents!

    I wish I had been there to turn that fan in the background on! Or better yet: come in with a leaf blower. It could have been like a life size snow globe!!!

    …and there’s plenty more confetti where that came from!! I have wonderful connections, but you can let the kids think I cut it all by hand.

    Well Sam, I’m sorry to tell ya, but the littlest confetti monster already beat you to that. In fact the fan was on when we first started playing with the confetti. I have no idea why, but she just walked over to it an tossed a big double hand-full in the back of the fan. That’s the main reason you saw confetti all down the hall at the end of the video.
