Homeschool BBQ with a Blast

Fridays are always crazy with tennis, storytime, Park day, Scout activities, and what not. Today was no exception. Park Day was at Founders, but BOY was it HOT! The shade was the best place to stay. I loved that the boys were able to have an amazing game of Laser Tag, but was also super glad when everyone was begging to go home. We had a special night ahead, and needed to go to the store and Lu still needed a nap. Everyone gathered tonight at Laura’s house for a bbq and some rocket blasting fun. The Fowles and Goughnours brought their ignition rockets, and we brought out water bottle rockets.While the adults got everything set up, the kids built castles and tunnels in the sand box. (Not sure how much we left there when we left!) Once everything was in place, it was time for action! We realized that we didn’t have a proper battery for the ignition, so Brother Goughnour used his battery charger. Wow! It worked! The kids were all amazed, and had a great time finding the parachute man.We had used our launcher at a pack meeting a few months ago, and somehow it got broken. Brother Goughnour tried to help us fix it, but by that time it was too dark to see. We’ll have to fix it at home and try again soon. We all had such a wonderful night though. We should all sleep very well.
