Interview with the Kids... kind of.

I finally did it! I did the kid interview after dinner tonight and I got a whole lot of blank stares and shoulder shrugging but when I put some of the questions in simpler terms these are the answers I got. Lucas lost interest after question 6. So mostly this is Jacey trying to play along but it would be interesting to see this again in a few years. However Lucas is now asking if we can go to town. Enjoy.

Well this was a tag type thing but I won't hold anyone responsible for doing it, but feel free to copy. We had a little laugh doing this, but I bet it gets really interesting coming from 6-9 years olds. These guys were still just a little bit too little.
