Hey, where we goin' today Rocket Girl?

Out of all the toys we have in our family room, this is what the kids have been playing with for the past week. A 2 cube box. It's been made into a fort, into a robot, and now - in this picture, a rocket ship.

No rocket ship would be complete without party noise makers! (Left over from Duke's birthday party in August). I often hear "3-2-1 BLAST OFF!" followed by 10 minutes of pure ear drum shattering shrills from their horns. I don't know quite why they do it... maybe thats how their rocket ship is powered? Or maybe its just fun to irritate mom?

Had I known they would have been this entertained by a cardboard box for this long, we wouldn't have half as many toy-toys in the basement. I can plop both of them down in the box infront of a Curious George movie and I have 60 minutes of uninterupted mommy time (minus the horn blasting of course).
