Egg Drop Party

We had our First Annual Grannis Family Egg Drop Party this weekend. It was lots of fun, and the best part was we got to throw stuff off the roof. Everyone had to construct their own vessel for their egg using misc things found around the house. We dropped the eggs from about 3 ft, 6 ft, 10 ft, and about 20 ft. Everyone had a chance to drop from all four heights, and that's when things started to get messy. In between each drop everyone had a chance to reconstruct, double pad, and extra duct tape their containers to ensure a safe flight for their eggs.

Here is Collin deciding how to build his.

Darrell, getting a little too serious.
All the fans and cheerleaders.

Ready...set....drop.....
Splat!

Brody won second place, but he stole the grand prize and no one had the heart to make him trade back.

And here is Tom, the grand champion, with his Dr. Pepper vessel that gave a nice safe ride to his egg all four drops.
