The day we got back from vacation there was a phone message that a small table and two chairs that we ordered for our kitchen was in and ready for pick-up. I told my husband that I was saving the boxes. I had my thirteen year old daughter and eleven year old son in mind when I said this. It was good thinking on my part. Comparing the vacation we had with the boxes, the boxes were much more fun! My husband and I figure next year we’ll just get a bunch of boxes and skip the vacation!
Just a couple of boxes?
Nope, much more.
This is better than vacation!
Wheeeeee!

Hi Puna!
I know! Can you imagine how many boxes you could buy spending 1/4 of what is spent on vacation?!
Hi elk!
They sure are!

Too funny! Maybe when they’re done, you could send those boxes my way. My cats would have a blast in those!

Hi Stephanie!
Kids and pets! They’re not that much different in what they like to play with!

lol! That is great that you had a chance to capture it. I don’t think my almost 16 year old would play again in a box. Buuuuuut, the 13 year old would, in a heart beat. So much fun!

Hi mrs. e!
I thought that was funny, too!
Hi lmerie!
My 16 year old wouldn’t have interest either!

Cardboard boxes are the best. I laughed when I got to the slide pictures! Great fun
