Story Time

I absolutely love telling Brenlee and Cadence stories. The story changes just about every day and I'm going to love the day when they can tell me what's new and different about the plot of the story! Here is the story for today:


The Three Little Pigs-as told by Candi

Once upon a time there were 3 little pigs. They lived at home with Momma pig and she told them that it was time for them to make a life for themselves and move OUT! She gave them a few minutes to pack a bag and then kicked them out. As they walked along the side of the old dirt road, they told jokes and reminisced about their childhood. The youngest little pig saw a Farmer's Market down the road and decided that he would go there to find some material to build his house out of. He approached an ol' farmer named Dell and haggled with him 'til he could afford enough hay to build a place to stay. He hauled the hay to the nearest corner and started building his house. The other two pigs kept hiking down the road. The middle pig saw a forest in the distance and a few lumberjacks chopping wood. He begged the men for the sticks that they weren't using, so that he could build himself a cabin. After pleading, the lumberjacks gave him a slue of sticks and the little pig went to the corner and built himself a cabin. The oldest little pig kept walking. He kept remembering what Daddy Pig had always told him. "Fools Rush In." The quote was now making more sense than ever! He was feeling good about his decision not to rush into building a house out of just anything. He decided to rent a cheap motel and get a good job for a while until he had enough money to build a house of brick. Well, about a month later, the wolf family moved into town. They had a son that was very mischievous and who loved him some pork. He found the youngest pig's house of hay. He knocked on the door and hollered, "Little pig, little pig, let me in!" The pig yelled back, "Not by the hair on my chiny-chin-chin!" So, the wolf huffed and he puffed and he blew the house down! He ate the little pig up for dinner. The next day, the wolf decided to pay a visit to the middle pig. When the wolf showed up, the little pig trembled in fear. The wolf hollered, "Little pig, little pig, let me in! If you don't, I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house down!" The little pig cried back, "Not by the hair on my chiny-chin-chin!" So, the wolf huffed and he puffed and he blew the house down! He ate the little pig up for dinner. The next morning, the wolf was bragging to some friends. His friends didn't believe that he had blown two houses down and eaten two pigs. He wanted to prove to them his strength, so he invited them to go with him the next day. At the crack of dawn, they headed out to the oldest little pig's house. Little pig was getting ready for a nice, relaxing dinner with his new lady friend, when he heard, "Knock, Knock, Knock!" Little pig knew that the wolf would be coming to visit, so he kindly said, "Please go away, I'm busy!" The wolf screamed, "I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house down if you don't let me in!" The little pig replied, "You can blow til you're blue in the face!" This infuriated the wolf and his friends. On the count of three, the wolves huffed and they puffed and they huffed and they puffed....and huffed and puffed.....but the house was still standing. Meanwhile, the little pig was starting a fire in the hearth so that he could roast some ears of corn. The wolf saw the chimney and thought to himself...."Aha, I will go down the chimney and get that little pig and his little friend! He climbed a tree and hopped to the roof. He tip-toed to the smoke stack. Before even looking down, he hopped down the chute....and into the fire. So, I guess you know what the pigs had for dinner! Wolf Stew! The End.
