Alex's Talent Show

Alex had a talent show at school. The talent show was completely optional and until the day of the talent show he had not expressed ANY interest in show-casing a talent. In the morning Alex came up to me & asked me if he could take his etch-a-sketch to school. I though he was just going to play with it at recess so I gave him the go-ahead. It wasn't until later that day I learned that he drew a picture on the etch-a-sketch and submitted it as his talent. WOW! I bet the teacher never saw that one coming! I know that I sure didn't. Crazy kid.

WD40

Sometimes boys are WAY to creative for their own good. Jonny, Lex, and Andrew were playing at the neighbors house across the street & found a can of WD40 in their yard. Jonny had the brilliant idea of spraying down the slide with WD40 so that they would slide faster! The probably wouldn't have gotten caught if it wasn't for the fact that their clothes came home smelling like turpentine.

So...I took the boys over to the neighbors, made them apologize, and wash the slide with dish soap so that none of the smaller children's clothes would be ruined or smell like turpentine. They hated me for about an hour, but now it's pretty funny. Jonny said he caught air when he slid down on his feet! (SOOooo glad I didn't see that!)

The other boy in the picture is Lupita's son, Andrew. Yep- they all did the crime, they all paid the time.
