Dodge ball

We have a huge maple tree in our front year. We love it in the summer because it gives so much shade for our family and the house. But in the spring there are hundreds of helicopters that fall off. After all the helicopters fall off the stems that the helicopters hung from fall off then we have all these stems that are ALL OVER! Well when the wind blows or you rake them up they form these balls. Eric thought it would be fun to teach them how to play dodge ball  with them. 

 Obviously Thomas thought it was more fun to throw them at Sup then to have Sup throw them at him.Of course that just tells Sup to do it more!

 So Thomas thought he would get him with a really big one.

I am not sure how much they dodged each others ball but for the most part they had fun with it. But I will admit I will be happy when all these helicopters and stems stop falling from this tree!
