The Whirlyball Experience!

Yesterday we went to a birthday party for a great kid. Happy Birthday A!! No I won't says his name on this blog nor will I post a picture of him. I don't know if his parents would like that to much. 

Every year A's mom comes up with the best birthday ideas. She is a rock star. This year his mom did it again and came up with another great idea for a birthday party..... Whirlyball! Yes if you are like me you are thinking what is whirlyball? I had no idea before we got to the party. 

Here is a brief explanation of Whirlyball: It is a combination of lacrosse and bumper cars. You ride in what looks like bumper cars while trying to pick up a wiffle ball with a scoop that looks like a shorter version of a lacrosse stick. The objective of the game is to get the wiffle ball in the goal that is on either end of the court. There are 2 teams with 5 people on each team. 

The kids loved playing whirlyball and thought is was so cool to play something different they hadn't tried before. I didn't try it because I am as coordinated as a newborn calf. This isn't a game just for kids we saw a groups of grown men playing on the other courts. 

Here are some pictures from the party. The Fife kids are in these pictures.

I know we are going to rent out a court sometime with a group of friends because this is something both parents and kids can do together. It is fun and isn't something we have done a million times before. Things you do often aren't bad like playing board or card games. It is nice to try new things and this is something everyone will enjoy. Whirlyball anyone? 

On a scale of 1 to 10 for family activities this rates a 9. Everyone at the party was smiling, laughing and having a great time. Good job R you planned another amazing party. 

I hope you had a great holiday week and got to spend time with family and friends. 

Thanks for stopping by and until next time,

Mrs. Fife
