At the beginning of the school year kindergartners were allowed to pick a book off a specific table in the library. Annabelle has now earned the privilege of picking out ANY book she would like….and she brought home this gem….
Yes, it’s a classic. It’s an entire book about a stupid family…named the Stupids…and the stupid things they do…and their stupid relatives, who are also named the Stupids. Like I said, a real gem. As I read this Gwyneth sat with her mouth wide open and every time I said “Stupid”, which was no less than 90 times, she said “oooooh, that’s a bad word”. Let’s hope this book doesn’t make a return appearance to the Meyer Casa.
After the girls went to bed B went to meet Abe at Buffalo Wild Wings and I got busy scrunching these….
Any idea how long it takes to make one of those (above) look like that (below)?
A long, long time. And I only finished one. And I still have the silver one to go, but honestly I was bored, and there was nothing good on my DVR. Wish me luck, I have a week to get the other one done…

OMG! I totally remember 'The Stupids'… in fact, if you're really wanting to do some research, there's a Tom Arnold movie that honors this fine series (yep– there's more than one) of books. I totally thought like Annabelle and hid one in the middle of my library stack each time we went (my mom was NOT such a fan of The Stupids).Happy Reading!
