I showed your post on Amoretti to my husband. He laughed heartily and then got a gleam in his eye that frightens me. I think you may have started something!

What fun! Cousins are wonderful. I wish our children lived closer to all of theirs.

Valerie, that’s hilarious!

Any pictures of the actual stash of candy? My daughter is absolutely fascinated by this idea.

That’s a fun idea, and I really like the shirts. Probably 10 years ago my husband instituted an all you can eat ice cream night at the local ice cream shop. There are a few rules; you must start with a large if you are going to get more than one and you must eat what you purchase. As the kids have grown they can put away a number of larges, but it is a memorable evening and one they won’t let us forget each summer. Family traditions are such an important way of building up the family unit, especailly in our very hectic life. Thanks for the fun idea

The burning question on all our minds: Did the event end with anything reminiscent of Lizzie’s last post?

I LOVE it! What a fun memory that will surely stay with them the rest of their lives.

And I must say I’m very impressed with their good handle on delayed gratification. It would seem I can learn a lesson or two from them!
