Every year my family gathers for Easter…and has The Great Easter Egg Shootout. ™ We have the best time. First, we get a target and hang it in the woods behind our house.
This year the target was a pirate. Yeah, no clue…but there you have it. A pirate.
Then we take a large slingshot…and, well…shoot at the target.
There is a lot of competition between the boys.
…and the girls
We have so much fun with our silly family tradition.
It’s one of my favorite afternoons. Year after year.
Since the kids get bubbles in their Easter baskets each year…there is usually a fair amount of bubbles floating around. (Yes
, I still do Easter baskets for my grown kids.)
We believe in an equal opportunity shoot out. We’re forever young in our family.

That looks like so much fun! I see these posts every year and I still want to know where to get one of those sling shots. My kids are older now and I know they would love to start a new tradition like this one.
Becky, the slingshot is a water balloon launcher. We found ours at Sports Authority.
How awesome!! You’ll treasure these forever!!! Thinking about your family today!! HUGS!
These photos are fabulous, girl!
Nice photos, looks like you had an amazing time together! We’re going to do the same thing next Easter 2012! Already looking forward to it.
I also admire photos on this page. Thanks for an idea how I can spend the time with family. I’m going to organise some competition.
Yeah, this kind of competition sounds great for me. Nice pictures 🙂
