Home Invasion

This morning the conversation around the breakfast table was amusing me, so I thought I'd share it. The kids got to talking about what they would do if someone "invaded" our house (Reilly's been watching movies). There are some common themes, see if you pick up on them. By the way, this was a very serious conversation. Here were their ideas:

Kinley: "We can tie a rope in a circle, (I think she's picturing a lasso) throw it around their necks, make knots in it, and pull them outside!"

Shea: "We have to call 911, tell them that they have to come now, then we can throw the phone at the bad guys!"

Kinley: "We have to tie ropes around rocks and throw them at them!"

Reilly: "We can put paper bags on their heads!" I interjected, "Don't you think they might just rip them off?" to which he added, "We can tie them around with rope like three times!"

Shea: "We can hit them with pots and pans!"

Then there's my favorite.

Reilly: "We can let them play Wii, then we can sneak outside and get some rocks to throw at them!"

So, bottom line: if you plan on visiting our house, make sure you knock loud and declare your intentions and relationship upon entry. And if you're offered a game of Wii, watch your back!
