Back to School Fun

Well the Back to School Tailgate yesterday was fun and interesting. Just after we finished getting everything set up, the wind started blowing and the storm clouds started rolling in. What a bummer.

However at the same time the rain started, kids started coming. So I jumped in the dunk tank to get as much use out of it as possible and if you have never sat on a lightning rod also known as a dunk tank in the rain with storm clouds coming, you don't know what you are missing. The kids has a blast dunking me and getting wet themselves.

As soon as the thunder cam we all went inside for a foam noodle "javelin" throwing contest. That was fun. Those kids thought they were going to be able to throw that thing all the way across the auditorium, but to no avail.

Then we started a game of foam noodle wiffle ball. Who would have known that could be so much fun. Well the girls knew. The number of girls that were playing quickly diminished to where there were very few left. Actually there were very few that actually started too.

After 2 innings we were back outside and Joe and I were on the dunk tank getting wet again!

The rain was a let down, but what can you do? We still had fun!
