Labor Day was a BLAST!

Labor day was a BLAST thanks to the Gunn Family and their family traditions. The Gunns invited us to their annual rocket competition. We had so much fun. First we had to build our rocket. We painted it pink and black and named it the Eagars Rock-it.


Our first launch got everyone on their feet. Adelynn was so excited she got to push the launch button. Well needless to say it didn't go as planned. The rocket didn't launch it tipped over aiming at everyone watching lucky it was so stuck to the launch pad so no one got hurt. We figured out the guide was in the wrong spot so thanks to a little duct tape we were back in business. The second launch went great. The rocket went up the highest. When the parachute came out it got caught in a wind current and drifted off and never came down.

After the rocket launch we headed to the pool to cool off. Adelynn fell in love with her archenemy the slide. On the way to swim she was saying how she hated swimming pool slides, then that's all she did was go down the slide over and over.


Nyah took a huge jump. Mike asked Nyah if she wanted to try jumping off the tree branch like he was doing. Sure enough she did it! I was so surprised its 10' or more from the water. I must say Nyah is brave! That is something I would never dare do. To top it off she did do it more than once.



Ella loved the side of the pool or the steps. I hung out with her that's more my speed. After swimming we ended the day with a BBQ. Thank you so much Gunn family the the fun day.
