Post July 4th Water Balloon Fight 640 Balloons

Epic Water Balloons
Photo-A-Day #4467

Each year, the thing I want to do most for Father’s Day is have a water balloon/Squirt Gun fight. This year it didn’t work out for the actual day however, we had our giant epic water balloon fight today on the Cape. I had picked up three packages of the Red White and Blue Bunch O’Balloons at Target and had some other colors from last year. I also had a package of 265 water balloons that the kids and Allison got me for Father’s Day. We are saving that package for a later date.

This year I did not put all the water balloons all over the place. Rather, I filled them all up right in the wagon so they were easy to move. If we do another one of these we’ll do it at the beach. We’ll just have to bring a rake and sand sifter to gather all the broken balloons when we are done.

It has been nice to stay down the Cape these past few days. Both Allison and I miss our bed at home although I tend to sleep later at the Cape, but I pay for it when my back hurts.

We got Paul’s pizza for dinner tonight. It is my favorite when we are there. I can eat a ton of it because it is so good, but it gets expensive.

We’ve had some great porch time and beach time, too. The fireworks last night were great. We enjoyed them very much.

500 Balloon Water Balloon Fight with Bunch O Balloons

Our Bunch O Balloons Products

We received a sampling of great Bunch O Balloons products for free from ZURU. They are for us to play with and review and give our honest opinion on them. There was one product that we were not able to use because that will be saved for another day, we need a pool or lake or something to use that one, it fills using water around you and then you can use it as a water blaster.

In addition to the water balloons sent to us from Bunch O Balloons I went out and purchased 3 more packages. I even got the Red, White and Blue Target exclusive ones. I meant to use those on the Fourth of July but we never got a chance.

I was trying to make this a surprise for the kids but they already knew about it. I did manage to keep them in the house while I filled 500 water balloons. Then I hid them all over the yard. The thing I love most about Bunch O Balloons is that they solve two major problems with water balloons, filling them and tying them. The balloons are self tying and you can fill over 30 in one shot, 100 in 60 seconds if you are quick about switching them out on the hose. I should really try and do that sometime, do filling races with Bunch O Balloons. That would be fun.

Sneak Attack

Once I had all the balloons filled and hidden around the yard we came out and had a water balloon fight followed by the rain while we picked up all the pieces. There are a lot of pieces with 500 water balloons. While they are biodegradable you still have to pick them up. Also the devices for filling the balloons are recyclable, I’m happy about that.

A package of 100 balloons is $9.99 and the balloon launcher around $12.99. I forgot the retail on the toy that you can use to fill the Bunch O Balloons without a hose.
