Have I shared that I'm not a morning person? It seems no matter what time I go to bed {10 is early for me, 11 is average} I wake up with sore eyes, congested sinuses and some sort of headache. My children seem to be the complete opposite. They are up by 6am and until recently thought I should be up to serve them breakfast, put on a cartoon and do whatever else they asked of me. I think they figured out that it was more fun with mom in bed so they stopped waking me up.
And why wouldn't it be? When I'm up with them there are limits on what and how much food they can eat before 7am, they can't play computer games {because I'm online doing something or other} and they don't have free reign of the house. I didn't realize just how much they were enjoying their freedom until I discovered some pictures on my camera. Pictures that I didn't take. Incriminating evidence that my kids supplied for me. Not only that they were using my camera but also pulling out lunch meat to eat, get on the computer, touch the xbox and of course they had to capture the innocent bystander too. Though, Jackie may not be so innocent since she didn't bother waking me up, I think she's an accomplice in the crime.

There were more photos that I deleted before I realized how funny this was and the scrapbook page I could make. Close up self portraits of Michael, the whole package of lunch meat out, Lydia getting into a movie or video game and about 3 dozen photos of Jackie just sitting there not telling on the kids.
Now that I think about it, the time they stopped waking me up in the morning was about the same time they each started waking up between 11pm & 1am, interrupting my sleep and making me want to stay in bed longer in the mornings. I think they plotted the whole thing and kept the dog quiet by sharing their lunch meat.
I love my kids & they're cute but really, they can't be trusted.

That is TOO funny ~ they documented their crime sprees!! DEFINITELY scrap-worthy!! The dog looks the guiltiest of the three, but I guess that's what happens when you know something's going on that you should probably report, but you're getting lunchmeat bribes to keep quiet....
LOL! I LOOOOOVE these pictures! They are quite the plotters I tell ya! It's funny how it looks like the KNEW they weren't only playing with the camera, but that they KNEW they were taking pictures of their naughtiness! Hahahaha I'm still LOLing over the lunch meat, and that look on Lydia's face ;-)
Those R AWESOME!! I am smiling so hard right now! Hey speaking of crafting you've got to go join my friend's crafting network site: http://www.fromctoshiningc.com/
Let me know if you join!
Hope you're doing well...sorry I've not been making the rounds lately and reading up. I don't get much time to sit much lately unless it's to work on the book or screenplay. After I'm done with that I need a break from the computer.
Okay -- that is freakin' funny!!
