It's What They Love to Do

Wrestling with Daddy, that is....Last night we watched Wall-E together, and then the children enjoyed piling up on Daddy. It's one of their all-time favorite activities, and they'll tell you they never get to do it enough.

Even Little Bit tried to get in on the action, but her efforts were more of a protective nature. She kept trying to get her siblings OFF of Daddy.

As you can see in the background, Boo wasn't too keen on the pile-up and wrestle concept. She preferred a more restorative activity as seen below.

Nurses Boo and Little Bit kindly give Daddy their homemade remedy for body aches and bruises. He patiently took the medicine.

Not limited by conventional medicine, the little nurses decided to try the benefits of an ipod charger and wooden rulers to help their patient quickly recover.

After all of the pummeling was over (well, it wasn't that bad..), we settled down for some snow cream and a game of Yahtzee, and Mountain Man was the big winner.

  5. Marissa and Rebecca,
    I didn't think I would....but I actually liked Wall-E. Of course, I'm sure I took away some themes from it that others might not have. I remember reading an interview with the creator of the movie in which he stated that the purpose of the movie was very much misinterpreted--the goal was NOT to promote concern over the environment. It was more about the need we all have to be loved and how things can never replace that. (I don't want to misquote, but I think that was his main point).
