Catapult

We've enjoyed some beautiful days this winter.  The boys decided to make a catapult this afternoon.  They were outside from 12-5 and I can't remember a single dispute.  It was one of those days a mom lives for.
The basic premise behind the catapult was this...animals will come up and push on the end (at one point there were some pretzel sticks balanced on the top) and then the rocks will flip up and kill the animals.  We've recently talked about David and Gloliath so the boys understand that it only takes 1 rock to kill something.  Then Easton planned on cutting up the animals, cooking them in the fire, and eating them.  He was hoping for a deer.

Declan enjoyed hanging out in the dirt with the big boys.
