Tent City....

So,
Trying to keep the kids entertained on SUMMER break!
and... keep the house under control at the same time....
We, in the house love a good ol' tent!
I mean really, who doesn't love a tent?

I found out... it was a brilliant upon brilliant idea....
Let me just tell you what i mean...
. . . .
ME: "boys...go clean up the playroom, and i will get a tent set up, does that sound like fun?!"
Boys: "YEAH, lets go clean."
ME: "Snicker snicker... "this is so working"
Boys: "Mom.... we are done cleaning...."
{later that evening}
ME: "OK... boys.. lets eat dinner under the tent... "
Boys: "YEAH!!!"
ME: "Hope you like Green Beans, and Corn.. with your Chicken!"
Boys: "Yeah we get to eat under the tent!"
Voila!
Mission accomplished!
Lets recap:
  • Boys cleaned the playroom
  • Ate vegetables
  • Had FUN!
