White Wednesday....

Last week was homecoming for my kids.     My how times have changed.  Getting rolled is now a GOOD thing.....

And this goes beyond rolling....q tips are scattered, white plastic forks and knives are poked into the yard.  Luckily the main items are toilet paper and shaving cream.  (for sidewalks, not cars)

While Matt and Kaela were out rolling, some people came and did their rooms.   I probably had 20 kids in here at different times.  Potty breaks and water was needed.......Rolling is hard work!

One room....



and the other......



Instead of assessing "damage" the kids were out there making sure it looked "good" enough.  Of course, as they cleaned the yard, they took the tissue and rolled someone else's house with it.  At 1 am....with school the next day........

My, how times have changed!



They all pick "crews" their first year of high school and stay with that crew all 4 years.  The crews create t- shirts and logos. 
One crew posed...



another crew left evidence...
  



Between layers of tissue was shaving cream!


and to make SURE we knew who it was they used shaving cream on the curb.  Once washed away,  the note will last a few years.
I'm sure the kids would like to think they thought to put a positive spin on the "art" of rolling houses.  But something in my old marketing heart tells me it was the tp manufacturer's idea!

So fun !!!
The cops in our area take action if they see it being done ..... they have a deal going with the local Walmart too, that if a kid of high school age try to buy an large amount of TP, they notify the cops.
It seems silly - it's just kiddos having fun :-)
