Girl fun…

Last night we had our good friends the Clarks over to watch the Super Bowl. Avery and Meghann spent the entire evening in Avery's room playing. At some point it became evident to them that they were having a bit of a hard time agreeing on what form of play would be most fun. So, they did what any enterprising, self-respecting, intelligent, Type A girls would do.

They negotiated.

The result was the following "to do list" of fun things to accomplish during the evening. After each fun thing was accomplished, they checked it off the list and moved to the next one.

I typed the list here verbatim for your enjoyment.

  1. glidr and pate
  2. dol hows
  3. clingn up
  4. playing prises
  5. playing with stufys
  6. woching a moofy
  7. dasing to musike
  8. resting

those are old

9. fathin showe

10. poot on exchrols


For those of you who might find yourselves little-girl-illiterate, I will attempt to translate.

  1. Glitter and paint
  2. Doll house
  3. Clean up
  4. Playing princess
  5. Playing with stuffed animals
  6. Watching a movie
  7. Dancing to music
  8. Resting (this is my favorite!)

Those are old (like, we've already done 1 through 8 and that was SOOOO 8 o'clock).

9. Fashion show

10. Put on…..? (This one sill baffles me. Maybe Heather has an idea?)

Oh that is just too funny! And - BTW - I understood every word of that little-girl-speak. Well, minus that last one. Maybe it should remain a mystery for all those over the age of 8!! :-)

I lOVE IT, I LOVE IT!!! I haven't been on in a while and I'm so proud of you! I am practically beaming! New postings and a WHOLE NEW LOOK! Oh Christie, you've outdone yourself! I'm not sure about the last one either. When Meghann gets home I'll have to ask her. They were too cute. They had a great time! Thanks again for having us!

I asked Meghann to read me the whole list. There was evidently a space in #10 and it reads (to a 6 year old) "Put on extra clothes" Like hats and scarves. I imagine they were planning on accessorizing! HA!
