Sometimes you just have to make them smile...

Busted out "creative PK" yesterday.... Staff is really feeling the stress right now, soooooo, what's a boss to do? Air Hockey of course. PK Style..... This is how is all went down.

Two conference room tables placed side by side. Poster board trim. Duck tape. Metal loaf pans. Canned air. Colored paper.

Push two tables together, tape border trim all the way around the edges, so they stand up above the table all around.

Cut loaf pans in half. Tape to each corner like goals.

Instructions were to take the colored paper, 4 different colors, one for each team. They had to decide to make small paper wab balls, Large ones, tape them, not tape them ect.

Pick a team goal tender

The other two on each team were offense.

Insert 12 cans of canned air, like you'd use to blow out your computer key board.

Rules....can't touch the paper balls. Can't shoot own goal. If ball falls on floor, it is dead. Each paper ball that is shot into a goal is one point. They each received 4 sheets of paper, it was up to them on the size of the balls. And also the number of balls made.

They only received one extra can of air.

The winning team gets taken out to a fun lunch one day next week by me.

Now.....things I didn't plan on. 1). Those cans get freezing cold when constantly is use. 2). That we might all feel high as a kite from the odor. 3). That I would almost pee my pants watching them play!

It was a blast....I highly recommend, if you have a group that could use a smile.

Any questions...ask, you'll not regret trying this with a group!

Metal bleachers!

It may still be 100+ degrees...but it's finally football time again! Tonight is BBQ, orange and football...finally! Can hardly wait. Leaving work early, so I do not miss one minute of it.

Chelsey text me Tuesday....take off work early, let's go shopping. My reply....silly girl! Yesterday she text....hey Mom, run your credit card to Frisco please. My response....silly girl. Sometimes I feel like I am a terrible Mom, because I work.

Colby has yet another flat. What in the world does that kid hit? He's gotten good at changing tires.

Danny is STILL working nights....he text me last night asking which was am and which was pm. I asked if he was playing trivia or something. Turns out the ntta had their sign notification incorrect, as to when the road would be shut down.

School starts Monday. Summer has drug by in some easy and in others it has flown. I have scratched the Senior Blog idea. It will be easier to just keep one, then I will figure oit how to extract the info for the kids. Most stories are about them anyway!

Off to get dressed, so I can head to Lewisville...have a great day all!
