The Harpoon and other Stories

Tonight, after dinner, just before we were to begin our Christmas Reading Advent Calendar Activity, GRIFFIN asked: "Can I make my harpoon right here?"
I happily told him yes. He quietly made the following:

DINNERS....SOME GOOD, SOME BAD, SOME AMOUNT TO WAY TOO MUCH:

We had spaghetti last week. It was good. I was VERY hungry while making dinner so I made up for it in my mind by making plenty! I just didn't realize how much of plenty I made till after dinner. Zak, who loves spaghetti, told me to just dish him out, he wouldn't look, but would accept all that I gave him. I guess I gave him a bit too much, but who knew??

Here is his dinner, before he started eating:


(please note: the pictures will NOW be out of the correct order. It is too much of a pain to re-place them in the correct order. Just enjoy the chaos.)

Here is Zak's plate AFTER he was done stuffing himself: Here is what is left in the colander AFTER dinner. Oops. Dad said that I had made enough for our family and the whole Patriots team....They were playing that night on TV. Carbo loading.
I said I was fine with that; we would be having spaghetti the NEXT night for dinner too; and we did....we still didn't finish all the spaghetti.

Another shot of Zak's plate after he was done:

Griffin wanted his face and spaghetti in a picture too!

That's a lot of spaghetti! Once all my brothers left the home, we would have leftovers for ever because my mom was not used to cooking for all girls and my dad. I can't even imagine what it'd be like trying to feed 6 boys!
