Family reunion 2008-Day 2-park day! includes pictures and video.

FAMILY REUNION FUN
Day 2 fun at the park!

we played games



we had super exciting Face painting!

we held baby joe!

we had An AZ snowball fight!

i borrowed this first video of the snowball fight from Jane



what goes into an AZ snowball fight!?!
the snowballs are flour filled pantyhose or knee highs.
pour a cup of flour and tie into small ball size with knots and cut apart.
a funnel is helpful
do it outside in play clothes and have fun!
the rules?
you can only have 2 snowballs at a time. no hoarding snowballs.
and no aiming for faces.
Great for scouts,family reunions, and other fun groups.

(it hurts like the devil if you get nailed in the eye.)


my fam after the AZ snowball fight.

and me afterward.
I'm always a fave to hit
since i squeal every time they come after me. or make contact.

i always turn around for the kids to get me. it's like hitting the broad side of a barn.
if they can't manage to get me , it's 'cuz they suck!



we hung out together.

Photobucket


my science teacher brother Bruce brought a bottle rocket launcher.

it was the HIT OF THE DAY!

apparently it launches 2 liter bottles, with a little water and a bike pump.

here is the video where batman took flight, in the B.D.S.(batman delivery system)

SUCCESS!



and a failure


it was a fabulously fun day!

and i even taught a bunch of my nieces a new made up word. SPARKLE-TASTIC!

i painted my nails, and toe nails, and a handful of little girls, with my sparkle fingernail polish from mamarazzi.

it was sparkletastic for sure!

my reader keeps filling up while i don't have time to sit at the computer,i'll catch up another day.

i have been keeping up reading my comments though, on my cell phone. yay me. i love it! thanks for the comments and support!

Have a spectacular Saturday!

and Sunday i hope to catch up again on my house that has gone to crap in the last couple days, and on my blogging.

I loved the barn reference. Vicki's backside in one of those videos was hilarious! Thanks for a great laugh. Can I get the directions for the bottle rockets from Bruce? Those were terrific!

How fun, I only wish we had to make fake snow here. Unfortunately we will probably see the real stuff before Halloween! Hope all is well!

How fun! Leave it to you to create a new word "SPARKLE-TASTIC". I love it. The AZ snow ball fight looks like fun. I saw the video on Supercool Hotmama (since you recommended that we check it out) and wondered what was used to create the AZ bomb, I mean snow ball. Flour is a clever idea. Nice!!! Fun times!
