My twin boys have their junior prom tonight. I took care of setting up both of their limos. 10 kids in Patrick's limo and 30 in Timmy's. This morning I was counting out the cash that all of the kids have given me. Well over $1000.00. I had it in stacks of $100's on the couch and turned away to answer the phone. I knew Izzy had flown into the livingroom, but thought nothing of it until I heard her say "Paper!!" I turn back to see her standing in the middle of the money which was no longer in stacks, but was now one great big pile. She had some in her foot and a couple of $20's in her mouth. Luckily the only damage was a beak size chunk taken out of the two $20's. If she had a few more minutes, I'm afraid what that might have cost me!! :omg:

:omg:that is SO hilarious! It's too bad you had to get the money from her and couldn't have taken a picture. I'll bet it was a priceless moment:rofl:

:omg:That is scary!

Now if she started to shred it up like any other paper? A couple chunks isnt too bad.. still usable right? But just imagine if she chewed up all that money. :faint:
