aside over a year ago, just waiting until the perfect day to do such a wonderfully crafty craft. She had been telling us about it for days. Finally, it was the day! We were pumped! She made us wait until after breakfast. The suspense was killing us. She showed us the box. It looked 
awesome. She made us wait even longer...in the living room...while she slowly and methodically unwrapped all of the candy and cookies. We couldn't wait any longer....we acted like "spies" and stole some candy while we waited. Then Mom said it was a go. So we sat and stared at the wonderful, colorful, fun, delicious 
looking candy (not sneaking a bite, mind you!) until she had assembled the train. It was so cool. So we ate, er, decorated it with candy. Okay, I admit it...we cared nothing at all about decorating that dumb train. All we were interested in was eating all of that candy, and then the entire train! Well, we ate plenty. But we had to save some to stick on the train to fool Mom into thinking we were crafty. And she wouldn't let us eat the train even though we begged and pleaded immediately after the last (third) piece of candy was placed. It did turn out pretty cool. Mom definately had more fun with it than we did, though. Personally, I preferred the sword fight with the vacuum monster that was cleaning up after us...now that was fun!
