Post-Thanksgiving chillin

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving at our home. Due to a dead battery and a mysteriously missing fuel pump relay (haha), Craig and Audrie were unable to leave when they planned. Chance, Dustin, Dakota and I took advantage of this opportunity to have lunch and a movie in the underground fort in the back. It was pretty cool to be six feet under and still moving around! Here are some pictures:


We took off a small part of the roof to let a little more light in. You can see what a wonderful cavernous hangout it is! The back wall is closed up with railroad ties. One enters by crawling through a 15' tunnel (that's where Dustin is squatting in the picture above), then dropping into the main chamber. Chance brought all the food in his backpack.


Since we couldn't find Lion King 1, we watched Lion King 1 1/2. We dined on PBJ's, chips, oranges, apples, Fruit Gushers, Kool-Aid and more--fare for a king!

It was hard to keep Dakota out of the food...
Chance had to guard his PBJ carefully!

Simba chillin out just like us!

I don't think he was scared, maybe cold a little...



We all hated to go, but a messenger was sent to end the party (and call me to fix the car...)
