Slurpee Saturday

Yesterday, 7-11 ran a promotion, fill your own container with slurpee.  We took full advantage of this promotion.  At first, Gabe and I just filled our travel mugs, which weren't much bigger than a large slurpee.  But then the kids got creative.  They went back and filled an entire red vines container.  They were a little worried that the sales clerk would balk, but she didn't.  Jeff and I thought that the container would last a while, but it was gone within about a half hour.  That just whetted their appetite.  Since Gabe was have a party that night, we went back with the red vines container AND a mixing bowl that was even bigger.  We filled both to the brim with "slurpee" that was only about half frozen since it was near the end of the day.  The boys at the party thought it was a bit strange, but they were fully on board with the deliciousness!  It was a very fun day.
