My daughter was volunteering for the set up of the vacation Bible school in her school on the day of her birthday so her little brother wanted to surprise her with water in balloons so they could have a water balloon fight when she arrives. He even learned how to tie the balloons himself, that's how bad he really wanted to do something special for her Ate.
I told him to use the wheelbarrow to put all the filled balloons so the dogs won't bust them.
They had so much fun. They asked me to join in but I told them that I will just do the documentation. They told me to use the stand for the camera but I didn't want the camera to get wet . That was actually my excuse lol. The last time we had a balloon fight, I was the main target ha!
Anyway, towards the end of their balloon fight, the rain started coming down. That was an extra bonus because they seldom play in the rain due to lightning and thunderstorm that comes with it most of the times. This time it was only raining so it was safe for them to play in the rain.
I told them that when I was a kid, we always played in the rain every chance we get and it was a lot of fun!
The balloons that they used is not really the water balloons you normally used but a regular baloons that you blow that's why they were huge. My son said that the regular balloons carry more water and it is more fun because you get wet right away when you get blasted. The issue of it was that, it was hard throwing it far. Nevertheless, they had so much fun.
I am glad that my son initiated this activity, it really made my daughter's day when she came home from school,
Even our dogs took part in chasing them but then ran away when they got splashed with the water lol.
Those balloons are bigger than their heads lol. I think they were filled with more than a gallon each.
As a birthday present, EJ let her Ate throw a balloon on him without him running away.
Here us the video I managed to record of them throwing those big balloons at each other.
And oh my gosh it looks like a lot of fun! I remember doing stuff like this when I was a kid! I should do this with my kiddo! It would be a fun way to cool off :)
Those balloons are HUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGEEEEE!!! Looks like the kids had a great time. Glad to see you guys not letting a little rain, rain on the backyard fun.
Oh the joys of childhood! I remember my own childhood watching the video of your kids. My children love water balloon fights too. They are all grown ups now and they still enjoy this summer activity. Of course, my sons would join forces and hurl water balloons at their sister. Haha.
It just doesn't feel like summer until we bust out the water balloons. My kids love bunch a balloons and I am also going to surprise them with a game of water balloon baseball this afternoon. Can't wait!
thanks for sharing pics...malaki na rin silang dalawa..
