Them Apples

So I guess my kids (Twins) really like apples. We were getting dinner ready the other night - Turkey Dinner, I believe. The twins seemed to have disappeared on us. We looked upstairs and none were to be found. My cuz offered to go check downstairs, where their bedroom is, to see if they were down there. The cuz's bought the twins a tent and tube which we set up downstairs for them to play with. So, I just assumed they were playing. I guess they decided they were hungry. They opened the fridge downstairs, pillaged a large bag of apples and a box of cream cheese, and headed to their room. When my cuz discovered their whereabouts, they were under one of their beds eating the apples - I do mean appleSSSS. They had taken a bite out of every apple in the bag. I guess they were marking their territory? Fortunately, they had not yet moved on to the cream cheese. That could have been a mess. My cuz proceeded to fish the twins out from under the bed, while they grabbed on to every post and slat to be found, hoisted up them and the bag of apples, and shooed them upstairs to dinner. Needless to say, they didn't eat much dinner!! Ah well. At least I know that they can fend for themselves when left alone and that they will make healthy decision.
