Cannon Shots

So here's the deal. When we went to Ft. Ebey in 2008 we walked all over Ft. Casey. While we were there Frank had the great idea to put Dru in one of the cannon's there. We thought it was hysterical that Dru fit in there. Ian and Lee however panicked! Out right screamed at their daddy to get their brother OUT of there!!! How could he shoot Dru out into the ocean!!!! They had people all around us stifling laughs. Screaming at their daddy to not to do it! I'm pretty sure we'll never forget that day, it was so funny!

Well this year we of course went back to Ft. Casey and did the same with Eli and went one step further and decided we'd all put the boys in the cannon this year. Why not live on the edge right?

So here is Dru in July of 2008 And Dru 2010...Can not believe how much this kid has changed in 2 years. It's not right...sniff..sniff!

Because we are sticklers for tradition why not put Eli up there in the tube? He was NOT impressed and was ticked off! He however did not pull the finger out so that's always a good sign.

Lee, he thought this was funny...and it was.

Ian kinda thought it was funny...really didn't know what to think you can tell in his face (like someone he knew would be looking?).

We had fun that day. It took awhile for the fog to burn off but when it did it got warm quick and fast in a hurry. There were a lot of people there and we left when the buses started pulling through the park. And just so you know, when the arrows are pointing one way that's the way to go, not the opposite. Some people were having a really hard time with that...apparently it's not obvious enough with really big, white arrows. I'm just saying.
