Where are the stakes?

In our attempt to go camping we had aired and cleaned out tenting system. In the process we had them set up on the drive, therefore we didn't stake them. We set them up the the girls got to explore them for a couple days.

You know when you have kids and it gets eerily quiet, usually it's not a good thing. The three were sitting on porch clustered around the little red wagons. I just thought they were playing quietly together. How sweet!

Todd and I carried on with assessing our camping gear.

Where are the tent stakes?

We couldn't find them and figured they were in the shed or the tote. Nope they were no where to be found. Well they have got to be here somewhere, I'm not going to worry, they'll show up.

Cleaning up the kids toys I moved the little red wagons. clank, clank, clank. What a strange sound in the handle. It must be broken. I picked it up to investigate. Dang it! The three yahoos huddling around the little red wagons were playing quietly together, they were threading 16 tent stakes into the little holes of the handles!
