The Summer Games Are Here!

I'm not talking Olympics, just Pik family water balloon games!  The idea was to play D-day attack on Normandy Beach, with Coleman and Brian in the back of the truck armed with water balloons.  But as Spence and Allie started approaching the truck, I thought it looked more like the boys' new favorite computer game:  Plants Vs. Zombies.  In this game, you have to plant different kinds of plants in the garden that defend the house from the zombies.  In our version, you just throw water balloons at the cutest little zombies I've ever seen!

Let's start with this adorable hug!

Here come the zombies

The plants attack

Another surge of zombies

I think this game is called, "Watch out!  Spence has the hose!"

I give them all a gold medal!

Coleman really has a thing for turning computer and video games into real-life games.  It's pretty neat, since it keeps him entertained without sitting in front of the computer or TV for hours.  And he gets everyone involved!  I love their imaginations, even if their games do include zombies.  Oh, and we found out that when zombies get bitten by fire ants, it puts a little umph in their step!
