Slumber Party

The kids have been begging for quite some time to have a slumber party. Rick was out tonight with friends, so I decided tonight was as good as any. We ate pizza, played memory, and then watched Kung Fu Panda with popcorn and candy of course. The boys had seen the movie at the theatre, but they were extremely excited to see it again. At first, the boys were glued to the television. I was all snuggled on the couch, thinking this is really nice. Then, there was Delaney! Up, down, all around, more popcorn, drink, bathroom, questions, more questions,....the girl can wear you out. She is just not a movie person unless it's something she really wants to watch. (Hmm... that actually reminds me of myself). About 30 minutes into the movie, she was actually saying she was ready for bed. She never fell asleep and before the movie was over the boys were up practicing all of their kung fu moves. As they watched the movie, they discussed which moves they knew and had used before. Such imaginations but it was quite cute. After the movie, they felt the need to begin their training right away, but I had to put the damper on the party and remind them of bedtime. It took a little bit for everyone to settle down, but everyone is happily slumbering in the living room. Now, lets hope I will be able to slumber on the couch tonight.
