So the boys and I went in to the Little Brick House 30 minutes before it closed and found the lobby full of people. It was great. Dave had a great last hour and that was pleasing. Natty was home sick from school today but miraculously felt better tonight and went to Zumba with Amy and Tara. She had a great time. So we had our boys night out and I made them their usual dishes: hot dog for Andy and a grilled cheese for Jack.
The lobby cleared out around 8 or so and the promise of a rice crispy treat got the boys bustin their humps. Hence the title of the post here as Dave quoted the line from the movie Uncle Buck. It was a good time. We took out boxes, wiped down tables, swept the floor, did I mention wiped down tables? The boys did good and it was great to have them helping out.
We did have a good time out at the dumpster. It was full when we put in the boxes so I grabbed one rather large box and put it on top - so large that it covered everything. Anyhow, I climbed up and started jumping. Jack had gone back inside but Andy was getting a kick out of it. He wanted to come up and so we hung out in the dumpster together and jumped around in an attempt to compact the trash. It was good fun. We ended up doing it again before we took off, just for fun. All three of us were in there jumping around. They loved it. I am a big fan of cheap entertainment and compacting trash by jumping up and down is pretty cheap. It is also fun.
There is nothing wrong with kids learning how to bust their hump. Knowing how to work is a tremendous assett.
