100 Cinnamon Yahtzee

This is my hundredth post.....hum.....should I feel.....something?

This photo is terrible but shows the kids enjoying a tape series (it was a radio broadcast that started in the 20's??) called The Cinnamon Bear. They listen to a segment (10-15 min.) before bed starting the night after Thanksgiving. Sadly there is a scary witch in two of the chapters. I wish that was not part of it. Sam gets so frightened he covers his ears. It's not really scary, but still....a witch? Anyway...

We had some great friends over tonight and played Yahtzee. Ben and I continued to play even after they left. In one game my score was 407 and Ben's was 311. We'd both gotten Yahtzee's and every space was filled.
I'm reminded that I never posted about the Lewis Christmas party. I might later.
Thanks for the recent encouragement. Love you all.

We LOVE the cinammon bear! My husband grew up with it and so his sister found the CD's of the radio program and gave it to us 2 years ago. Nessy gets so frighted of that darn wintergreen witch too. What were they thinking when they made it? Fun traditions though! What fun memories our kids will have, I hope. ;)

Katie, what fun. We have not gotten it yet, but the kids love to listen to stories. I should try to find it.

Do you like the book Esther is reading? I saw they have a boy one too...Curious of your thoughts :)

LOVE the book. My parents got the Dangerous Boys one for us too. The girls one describes and instructs how to 'put up your hair with a pencil' as well as 'how to perform cartwheels'. Oh yeah, and how to control and sit in a canoo. Gotta love that much diversity in one book!
