A Good Time

Hopped over to Nobbies today with the girls to pick up some supplies. The idea was to make some Pom Pom (aka marshmallow) shooters. We grabbed some Solo cups and balloons and some silly string while we were at it. Okay so you don't really need silly string but it sure made for a fun half hour in the park chasing each other. 


After returning home I set about making up the Pom Pom shooters only to realize that our balloons weren't big enough to fit over the cup. So much for that idea. So we improvised instead and decided to toss Pom poms into cups instead. 


We started off by placing one cup a certain distance from us and alternating who would throw. Each sized Pom Pom was given a different point value. 

Monkey girl pulled up from behind to take the lead in that game by sinking a ten pointer. 


Next up we decided to up the stakes and offer three cups to shoot at at different distances. Butterfly stole the show with that one by sinking eight balls in the closest cup. Smart girl. 

It was a stiff competition and I'm sure it would have broken out into an all out free for all Pom Pom fight, but sis arrived home just in time and it was off to bed for the girls. 

I'm looking forward to many more days of fun with my beautiful nieces while it's still cool to hang out with me. Wish me luck.
