Rockets!

On labor day Jeff stayed home and built a rocket launcher with the kids (I was in charge of building rockets). Then we called up my sister and headed to the park to try it out

WOW! who knew you could have so much fun with such a simple thing

Destiny tried her hand at making a rocket for herself. Sadly she only got one launch before it ripped apart, practice makes perfect.

Even the adults got into it. We tried to catch the rockets on their way down, not as easy as it sounds. And maybe not such a good idea with the crowd of kids watching us, but I never claimed to be a good influence : )

Jennsen and her cousin Shaun loved the sound the launcher made when they pushed the button.

A BIG thanks to James and Kirsten for the idea! We can't wait to get together and pit these bad boy's against each other.
