Last night at 1800 hours we all met for 5 rounds of Nerf combat training.
These ain’t no games for the faint of heart.
Casualties are common (as well as pouting).
One hit, you’re out.
Wouldn’t you know it in the last round I took a Nerf dart to the eye. I really did shoot my eye out! 12 hours later I still see only black out of the bottom portion of my right eye.
After a visit to the eye doctor today I will be purchasing eye protection for everyone or those d#@* guns will be in the garbage.

We had a similarly epic battle over Thanksgiving between my fiance, his sister (a police detective), a niece, two nephews, and one excited golden retriever. It was awesome.

Oh no! But can I just say that every single picture made me laugh because it’s exactly what I’m seeing right now as I type this comment. It’s utter chaos and I can’t wait for warmer weather so those blasted guns can be taken outside!!! ;-D
Jessica says
too cute! {not the getting-shot-in-the-eyeball part}
such good parents, playing with your kids like this. I know a lot of parents that wouldn’t allow that kind of activity indoors. so refreshing to see this ๐

This is a re-inactment of The Famous Gunfight at the OK Corral…Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday are knocking of the bad guys right and left…Only trouble is Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday are themselves getting knocked off.

I have three boys (8, 6 and 2), and shhhh … don’t tell anyone. I THREW ALL OF OUR NERF GUNS AND DARTS AWAY. Like, in the trash. Gone forever. ๐
Jaime says
My guys and gal having been doing the same thing since Christmas. I owe my parents a huge thank you (not!) for the nerf guns and “bullets.”
