It's Curling!

We "curled" today. The rules were a little different. For example...
There is no ice.
We don't slide heavy rocks.
There was no bumping of other people's rocks.
There were no teams either.
Or scoring.
There weren't any big painted circles on our board. Just squares made out of painter's tape. (Squares were much easier.)
And there was no sweeping of ice. Or strategy.
But other than that, it was pretty much the same game.

If we would have had a winner, Dare would have been it.

Mads' technique was jumping as he threw. Gorgeous, but not very effective.

G was the biggest cheater. We gave him a DSQ several times.

P.S. If you ever get bored in the car, G has lots of ideas you can do to keep yourself entertained.

G and Mason should get together and go bowling. I am sure if Mason could talk, they would have ALOT to talk about. They seem to have alot in common. Their love for crayons for starters....lol

I'll have to check it out...btw, Evan loves that last picture. He keeps saying, "Hey! What's his name?" Then I tell him and Evan says, "I like crayons too!"

Evan likes to stick Nerds up his nose.

That's funny! I LOVE the olympics and watch it all the time, but I've never watched the curling events.
