A Silent War

Upon our return from a week in the Outer Banks, we discovered a war being waged in our home. We knew to expect some mischief, but weren't sure what exactly had happened in our absence. It stems from the unwanted exchange of hideously fancy doll (Penelope) who has gone back & forth between our home & Nick and Kelli's as a prank.
Penelope returned this time with a "Welcome Home" note and with friends, many, many friends. Battles were being waged in almost every kitchen cupboard, in the medicine cabinet, in the piano bench, on the entertainment center, on many door & window ledges, in the car, in the garage, even in the shower.
The meticulous arrangement suggests too much time on someone's hands, but we do appreciate the effort. Kelli, your dollar-store-dollar was well spent...220 Cowboys & Indians in all?
I snapped a few pictures to share.




Thanks for taking care of the cats to Kelli & Jess. And to Jess, it's nice to know that some people can be trusted with a key to our home. ;) Posted by Picasa

OBX



Sunrise in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. What could be better than 17 members of your immediate family in an enormous house on the ocean?
Everyone getting along, a pool, a hot tub, sunshine, great food, mini kegs of Oberon, kayaking, fishing, and general merriment! That's what's better!!!!!! Posted by Picasa
