Family Friday Night

After a rousing game of Chutes & Ladders (congrats to Daddy, the winner), Mikaela found her magic wand and began to do some tricks for us.

After that, a new game was created, "The Poof Game."  The magician points to wand at a subject and says, "Poof, you're a _________" and fills in the blank with an animal. The subject then acts it out, makes the animal sound, etc.  When Mike was the magician and Mikaela the subject, Daddy had gone through many animals (cow, pig, bunny, dog, etc) and decided to say, "Poof!   You're a bird."  Then from there he said, "Poof! You're an angry bird." (This is a favorite game of Mikaela's).  Her angry bird rendition got Mommy very tickled (sorry no video).  After that Mikaela wanted to be the magician and make Mommy the subject.  Daddy informed her that until Mommy stopped laughing, she wouldn't make a very good subject.  To which Mikaela replied, "Stop laughing, Mommy."  Yeah, cuz that works.

A little while later, after Mommy composed herself and was a successful subject, Daddy was the magician, instructed by Mikaela.

"Make her a ducky."
"A ducky?"
"Yeah, you know.  A ducky."

And that's how we roll on Friday nights at the Moreland house...
