Dressing down to dress it up

The quest to give the house a total make-over continues. This weekend with a spectacular toy! I asked my parents in oh so many ways to let me on, for just a teeny tiny little ride. But to no avail. They told me that my one and only assignment for the weekend was to entertain Grandma and Grandpa. Of course, as a matter of principle, I had to protest. But once that was taken care of, we had a great time and I came up with the perfect revenge: To take my first step in the presence of Grandpa only. No parents anywhere in sight. Now, that's quite sophisticated, wouldn't you say? Another bonus was that Grandma looked funny in the scarf she wore, to protect her hair from paint and her ears from the brisk northern winds.Mom and dad looked funny too, the little I saw of them as they passed by the windows. But the house is starting to look really good, so I guess they were dressed for success.
