A New Rubber Band Game

If you know the Ricks family you may have heard about their rubber band game. You split up into 2 teams (usually an upstairs team and a downstairs team), are given rubber bands, and then move into position and try to hit each other with rubber bands. Once you've been hit 3 times, you're out and the last team standing wins. It's great fun.

Well a few nights ago, we had dinner with our friends, the Oakes, and they taught us a new rubber band game. It's with army me. Yes, you heard it, ARMY MEN! You divide into 2 teams (we played couple against couple) with a load of rubber bands. You set up army men on your base. We used the dinner table and kitchen counter but they said they normally play on the floor (the babies were still awake so we voted against the floor). Once you have your army men set up, you use the rubber bands to knock them over. Whoever knocks over all of the other teams army men first, WINS! We played 3 games and sadly only won once but hey we were beginners right? It was really fun and I can't believe the utter bliss we have been missing out on. You should play. It just might change your life.

This is war! 

Don't be deceived by their sweet, smiling faces.  They will devour your army.
