O.K. I'll add a bit more...
Once upon a time, in the land of Winchelberry, there were three families that were considered a bit odd. The first family had 3 children and 25 goats. Each of them wore odd looking hats including the goats.
And each of the goats wore weird clothes as did the family. But one day, they decided to do a different thing. It was not like them at all. And everyone around them might just treat them different when they try this out which was to remove the hats and shave their heads totally bald, goats included.
The second family consisted of Grandma, Grandpa, Mom, Dad and four children all of them named Kelly. Not the last name...the first. Eight people in one house named Kelly.
The third family were the strangest of all. They all wore lime green pant suits, with the pants hitched up under their arm pits. The kids didn't go to school because it was against their religion. They only ate carrots & sweet potatoes and as a result, their skin had an eerie orange glow. But weirdest of all was that they all lived in one small house that the father had built by hand in the shape of a igloo, but made entirely out of glass block.
That house was connected on one side to the brick, chimney shaped house the Winchelberrys lived in and on the other to the teepee the 8 Kellys lived in. A large fence surrounded the three homes and a good sized yard where the goats lived.
One day the goats decided that they had had enough of these crazy people. They thought and thought for weeks of an escape plan. Finally they figured out how they would get away. The head goat named Bob called a meeting to explain the plan. He told the other goats that what they would do would be to throw a big party as a distraction, they would build a big bon-fire and have all kinds of delicious foods and dance around the fire into the wee hours of the night but first each goat would have to learn to walk on their hind feet like the humans so as to not be terrible noticeable when they made their escape. In addition, they would have to steal all the lime green suits from family number 3. No easy feat since the entire house was made of glass, but necessary if the plan is to succeed. Bob decided the that the 2 smallest goats, Peewee & Fred, should be the ones to sneak in. He handed them each a laundry bag and instructed them to tiptoe in after the family was asleep. They had arranged to tape the lock on the front door so that entry would be easier. Finally the time came for Peewee and Fred to pull off the heist. They gathered their courage, pulled on ski masks and all the sudden PeeWee started to sneeze. One sneeze after another! This would not work if they were to sneak in the house to steal the lime green suits. So Quick-thinking Larry, one of the younger goats who was famous for his brilliant and quick ideas, grabbed a green and orange magic marker and got busy coloring PeeWee's hair lime green and his face orange so if anyone saw him they would just think it was one of the children wandering around for a snack. ................
