Just For Fun

Just thought I'd share these catapults I made this year.  They were so super Easy!  And they gave a chance for my first use at a miter saw.  The first cut was a little scary--it is a powerful machine!!  I read online how to use it since I've not been around the few times so far Big J has used it and that helped a ton.  

Then my creative juices flowed as I decided how to make them look Halloweeny.  The kids have had fun with them and little J's class thought they were pretty rad as they catapulted pumpkin seeds onto different valued plates as one of their activities.  I hope we make a tradition out of having a yearly family contest of seed catapulting.
