Badminton anyone?

Heather and Clint decided to stop by Saturday for some hanging out with the Fam time. We went swimming but only stayed an hour cause it was cloudy and the water was a little cool. We then played some Canasta, had some dinner and headed outside for some not so serious badminton playing. The object was to see how many times we could hit it to each other without missing.
We were kind of just hitting around in a circle but spent more time laughing at everyone's dives for the shuttlecock than anything else. Some of us had some pretty good moves!
Of course the funniest things that happen never seem to make it on camera but trust me, there were some pretty funny moments and some awesome dives! We finally made it to 67( correction- 63) hits before missing...that is a new record for us and of course setting a new record deserved some happy dances.

Then we played a round with everyone on their knees which in and of itself can be quite funny but we took it one step further and played while lying on our stomachs! Anyone driving by had to wonder...

After all that hard work and side aching laughter we figured we had earned a trip to Zeppes.

This place just opened in Layton and Heather had mentioned how good their italian ice and gelatas are. She was right! I had a tiki fruit shake-mmmm! Thanks for playing Heather and Clint!

  1. We had such a fun time hanging out! I'm so glad we got to come down. I think we have had some of the funniest times playing badminton :) And I'm glad you liked Zeppe's. I wish there was one here.

    P.S. We got 63 hits, not 67. Maybe next time!
