These are pencil toppers that are squishy. The kids collect them. They cost 25cents and they are in those little grocery store vending machines. So....today school was cancelled because of ANOTHER snow storm. We only got about 3 inches but it was really windy and the roads were terrible. (I went out in them this morning and it was slickery that is for sure!) So, anyway....Conlon, Julia, and Liam came over to play with us. Conlon is Cate's age. Julia is 9 and Liam is 8. Liam and Jordan were downstairs playing the Wii so they missed the picture. But we sure like those kids and so glad they live soooo close to us. They only live about 2 houses down from us. They made the day go a lot faster..... :)
