When  Bob & Jenny invited us over for lawn games, we had no idea what that meant.

Blowing bubbles is a very important part of a celebration, to me!

Ladder toss is a lawn game played by throwing bolas (two balls connected by a string) onto a ladder.  The items needed to play are two ladders and a set of three bolas per team. Each ladder has three rungs, each rung scoring a different point value. Being a relatively new and grassroots game, it goes by many names and has a diverse array of tales for how each was created. Some of these names are: Läderbölen, Balls Awesome, Ladder Ball, Hillbilly Golf, Dog Balls, Lasso Golf, Dangle Ball, sling nuts, and many others. There is also a patented version of the game called Ladder Golf.  Bob and Jenny called it Lawn Golf... a respectable name for an addictive game.

While Lawn Golf was new to us, we delighted in old school Bean Bag Toss.

Lunch was anything but traditional, yet it was delicious. Dining on the deck, overlooking the Lake, just screamed "Perfect End of Summer Shindig".
