We just held our family reunion and had a great turnout My uncle in the middle (hands on the walker) just had both hips replaced 10 days ago and is up and about! The children loved it! New to me was the "Melon Popper." The grand and great grand children were divided into lineage and each group given a water melon and a bunch of rubber bands. Whoever got their melon to burst first won a prize. Success!

Looks like y'all had a great time. At my wife's family reunion they always play egg toss. Each toss gets farther apart until only one pair has an egg left .... someone, of course, always ends up with egg on their face.

Here it is in SLOW MO.
Did you notice the small sphere of rubber bands flying off to the lower right?
