Go Get Candy

Don't let the charm of this photo fool you. The Princess of Darkness (on the right) and her Lady in Waiting are juvenile delinquents disguised as sweet little girls.

Last weekend, my parents took these two darlings to the Concerts in the Garden. By all accounts, they had a wonderful time. Good music, fine weather, snacks and fireworks - a perfect evening outing. Afterwards, the girls went home with Grandma and Grandpa and spent the night.

My nieces and nephews like sleep overs with Grandma and Grandpa. There are fewer rules at their house than at home.

Typical grandparents.

Sometime after the girls returned to their parents, Grandma and Grandpa decided to tidy up the spare bedroom where they discovered this among the scattering of little girl litter:

Little girls do not make good sneaks. This detailed to do list reads:

1. act like were alsleep
2. make sur adults are alsleep
3. wake up
4. sneek out
5. go get candy
6. close the dror (Grandma keeps a well stocked candy drawer in the kitchen)
7. and don't tell parents
8. and don't leve eney croms (crumbs) or clues by the bed
9. go back to sleep
10. wake up in the morning
11. get botion (Button, an unfortunate guinea pig that lives with Grandma and Grandpa)
12. play the vet game (with the unfortunate guinea pig Button)
13. wake up grama and katiy and jump on grama (my mother's sister Katie is the Lady in Waiting's grandma)

The detail of their planned crime spree is amazing, don't you think? If they'd only remembered to not leave clues by the bed, nobody would have been the wiser!

Except for poor Button the unfortunate guinea pig. Grandma says he's still hiding under his shavings dreading the return of The Princess of Darkness and her Lady in Waiting.
