Croquet

Heidi's dad was in town this week for a conference in Tucson. So he dropped by for a short visit. (Tucson...Maricopa...might as well be "in town.") After dinner we played a game of Croquet. I love this game, I don't know why, maybe cause I used to play all the time at my friends house when I was younger, like 10 or 11 years old. I haven't played since then until tonight. It's funny how I remember the Croquet set being a lot bigger than the one we have, but apparently it's standard size, it's just me that's gotten bigger.

Here is Heidi and her Dad in the glare of the sunset. It was actually a pretty sunset but they never come out the same on camera.





Here is Daniel chasing the croquet balls on his little bike. We had to give him something to do otherwise he would start pulling out the arches and take off running laughing and giggling wanting to be chased. Or he would just stomp them flat.



Heidi, about to make an exciting game play:





Here is Daniel again, not playing by the rules.
