So every year we have an egg dropping contest, usually around Easter, but we are kind of behind, so we had the annual dropping on Monday, June 16. How it works is we can only make a contraption that is 7 inches square because we sling them from a water balloon flipper. They are really fun and most of the time the eggs break. The winner this year was Brycen, his egg was wrapped in toilet paper and duct tape, then he put that in a container that was full of uncooked potato pearls. The funnest was Tolmans and my Moms. Tolman (remember he is only 4) wanted to put his egg in mashed potatoes in a ziplock bag. See the video below to see how that one turned out.
My Mom got a big jar of peanut butter and took half of the peanut butter out and the put the egg in and then filled it up with the rest of the peanut butter, then she wrapped it in a couple of layer of duck tape. See the video and picture below.
Joey put his egg in a cool whip container filled with oats.
Sammy killed one of Caleb's teddy bears and put the egg inside of the teddy bear and then duck taped the teddy bear up.
It was really messy this year.

That looks like so much fun! What a great family tradition- you guys are always doing fun things! I bet Brycen was pretty proud (but not so proud he was wicked) that he won!!
