Kids,Longbows, and Balloons.
« on: March 17, 2009, 09:12:00 PM »
It's been raining solid for the last four days.  Today, the sun came out and gave my son, Tyler, and daughter, Abbey, a chance to get out and enjoy a beautiful spring-like day.  Tyler grabbed his back quiver and long bow and I blew up some balloons for him to shoot at.  Miss Abbey was the designated balloon holder and arrow puller.  Any of you guys and gals with kids should give this a try.  They really get a kick out of shooting balloons.

Lord, her mother would kill me if I ever considered that.  After re-reading my post it does sound like that.  Should have said she held the extra balloons until it was their turn to be pinned to the target and popped.

It looks like a GREAT day, Fritz.  Looks like you might be in the market for another Black Rhino.   :D

We use balloons when we do the kids archery tent at our State Fair; they do love popping those balloons.  We'll run a 500-800 kids a day thru the tent for ten days.    :archer:

Rick,

Your right about me needing to get another little bow.  Abbey is getting to where she isn't happy at just being able to take her turn with her brother's bow anymore.  She's got a birthday coming up, I might have to check on getting her one.
