bye bye halloween candy

i gave them 2 days with their candy {almost 2 days.}
on friday afternoon, they all dumped their candy out on the floor.
i gave them a small bag and told them they could each pick 15 pieces of candy (lincoln got to pick 5. long story. but he lost his privilege to ALL his candy on halloween night.)
they rest we were selling to the dentist (he buys it $1/pound of candy and sends it to the troops overseas. win-win!)
the FUN rule about it all...

they can eat their candy WHENEVER they want! for breakfast. all THAT DAY. whenever! it just has to be gone in 1 week. done. i don't want ANY  more candy in the house in a week!

now, it's 3 days later. lincoln and sawyer's candy is long gone. bailey's is almost gone. and rebekah and joshua are slowly enjoying theirs ;-)

oh! and we sold 11 pounds of candy! so each kid (except levi) got $2.20! they were happy about that!
