Egg Drop competition!

Daddy created an egg drop competition for our cousins and us! We had 5 teams, and everyone did awesome!

Alayna and Abby worked together with a stocking, a few socks, some bubble wrap and an awesome plastic bag parachute…

Morgan and Emily did great too, and they were the only team to use water (although they found out that didn’t work that great…)

Julia and Mikayla rocked the Ziploc container, bubble wrap and duct tape!

One did not survived once the parachutes were removed…
