Saturday, In the Garage...

This weekend Bella had to put the finishing touches on her Ping Pong Ball Launcher. Trav and her were working hard to get it done before we had to leave Saturday for our Dinner/Movie Night ritual. They were scurring around like two little mice working feverishly to get Cinderella to the Ball on time!

I was able to snap a few shots without being noticed.



I had to interrupt them so that they could eat lunch. I could tell that I was not really wanted and that they would rather skip my nutritious lunch (frozen pizza) and just finish up so that they could get to the good part, the launching of ping pong balls.

I decided to wait until further notice to start on lunch and just grabbed my camera. This way I can get the money shot, right?.?. Well a few minutes later, they were ready to make their debut. They set up their target and Bella lined up the launcher and prepared to fire...


Here is another shot after many, many different shooting angles, stances and other adjustments..


After they had gotten good results, it was then decided that it had to be painted. I mean really, what kind of girl would take her new ping pong ball launcher to school naked?!?!?!? Thus the very funny sight of Trav painting with Lilac spray paint. There are no pictures of this as I wasn't allowed into the garage because of the fumes. I think there are other reasons, like I would have taken a pic of the man and his paint, but we'll just go with the fume story for now.

On a side note, we still haven't heard anything from the Dr about her eye so I will be calling Monday am to see what the word is. I will keep you posted and thanks for your prayers!
