Memorial Day Weekend

I hope that everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend as I did enjoying family, friends, sun, and not to forget food. Dad had a gathering down at his house that included all of the listed. I even had family from out of town come in so that they could join in all the fun. Now, I have given you an overview of the events already, but what I haven't is explained our little family tradition. Most families play games with each other ranging from croquet, horse shoes, and basketball. We play washers. What is washers you ask? Well, its a little hard to describe but let me try. There are two different dirt ovals at either end of the court that is designated by a certain amount of feet that I am unaware of. At the back of both oval dirt there is a small hole about the size of a tennis ball. So the way you play this game is normally there are four players that are sectioned off into partners. And one partner is at one end and the other partner at the other end. Now, my Daddy and Uncle Larry are the champs at this game. They always are the teachers and then the ones who beat the snot out of you. Well, I have never been much good at doing it because it takes a bit of talent that I apparently lacked for years. Nathan became really excellent last year and was Dad's new pick for a partner, but he was unable to attend due to work so I had to sub for him. For some crazy reason, I was awesome! I won two of the several games in a pinch at the end of the games. Uncle Larry was shocked and now owes Dad more money than he did last year. LOL. I hope everyone had a great time.
Until next time, sorry about having to go back to work, couldn't do anything about it for you.
