Hide and Seek at the New House


So last night we had a bunch of family over to our new house before we got totally moved in so we could play hide and seek in the dark. It was a lot of fun, but I now understand a little more why my parents (and other home owners) were so anal about not slamming doors and were constantly telling you mellow out and shut up and find something quiet to do. Right off the top we laid down some rules. After a few complaints we started off. We had a ton of fun. We played for several hours when finally the banister on the stairs was ripped out of the wall. Game over! We played Ghosts in the Graveyard outside for a couple minutes after that and then called it quits around 10:30 PM. Now being the one that put an entire life's savings down on a house I now have a new perspective. Every bag and crash and slam is translated in my ears and I hear a different sound. It sounds more like KA-CHING! to me. We have a lot of things that we want to fix up and changes here and there and we don't have a lot of cash to do it so we'd much rather spend cash on the things we want to fix up rather than fixing things that were broken. Aside from all that we had fun. It's fun to hide in plain sight in the dark. Wearing all black has its benefits :)
