Janie's Fun House

Tonight, our house was full of little munchkins.  Friends with kids came over for supper, as their house is being packed to move to another town.  I love children, but y’all probably knew that already, right?
These little girls are beautiful.  The two oldest wanted to eat their supper in the TV room, so we set them up on our coffee table.  I soon went to check on them, and got there just in time to rescue their food from Zack the Wonderdog.  It seems that the girls had gone exploring in the room, and weren’t watching their food.
While they were exploring, they found this bowl that’s sole purpose is  to house the remote.  Instead, the girls found all sorts of treasures in this bowl.
They found:
An H2S monitor
A lens cap for my camera
A small part of the vacuum cleaner
A sock that someone had rescued from Zanna the Wonderdog
Some highlighters
One of those stretchy headbands with a light on it - for nighttime reading while camping.
A lipstick, and nail polish (thank God I was around for that find!)
It seems our maids have been stashing whatever they find laying around in that bowl.
Of course, girls being girls, we had to try the lipstick on everyone.
And then, we had to get the little mirror in the bathroom out, so the girls could admire themselves.
And while one young lady took me into her mom to show her our lipstick, the little sister found a sheet of postage stamps...
And proceeded to decorate the little mirror with the entire sheet, one stamp at a time.
ThatManILove has a desk in this room, and the oldest girl found a hole punch.  That and the highlighters, augmented by some post-it notes, kept her entertained for the better part of an hour.
Who says you need toys to entertain kiddos?

They're coming back tonight for a rerun.  Wonder what we'll find?
Tonight was too much fun.
