Water Fight








We had around 75 people attend the party. We filled 500 water balloons for some of the games, but in the end we had about 400 left. Somehow or someone started the water fight by throwing a water balloon at an adult that was innocently standing there. With in seconds chaos broke out and balloons were being thrown from every direction. Soon there were Super Soakers and Water Blasters shooting water through the air. No one was safe. I wish I had a picture at the start of the fight because then you could see the sheer scope of craziness that broke out. I was afraid that my camera wouldn't survive a direct water balloon hit. After the fight was over we were left with a huge mess. Broken water balloons were strewn though the street and our front & back yard. Later on about 4,000 little "Pop Its" (those little paper things filled with gun powder, that make a spark and pop when you throw them on the ground) with those little paper wrappers were left all over the street. A disaster zone. In the end, everyone did a great job packing things up and putting stuff away. The party was a huge hit and we're already planning for next years party.
