    Default DS won!

    DH took both boys to the Hallmark store this past weekend because they had a big Webkinz extravaganza. They got to play games, etc. There was a large jar of jelly beans that they had to guess the amount of. DS #2 (he just turned 5) guesses "201" to EVERYTHING. If you ask him how old people are, he will always tell you 201. Anyway, there were 203 jelly beans and he came the closest. The Hallmark store just called me to tell me. He gets to pick out a Webkinz of his choice AND gets the 203 jelly beans--that's the part I'm not so psyched about!

    Well pass on my congratulations to your son!!! My kids always loved those kinds of contests when they were little. Jelly Beans aren't so bad, they are low in fat and one of my hubby's favorites!
