So...On Saturday I had to get up early to finish my lovely Australia paper, and Adison comes down and asks me what I'm doing, and that he wants me to do something with him. VERY DEMANDING. I said okay what would you like to do, and then he says that he feels like doing one of two things: hit golf balls (not my fav. thing in the world). Build something. So I said okay lets build something. He asks me what I thought we should build and I said a gun. He's like yeah...like a potato gun...yeah....now your thinking. And I was like sure. I had to continue working on my Australia paper, but Adison still came in every 10 minutes with something in his hand, showing me how this would be cool for this part of the gun. I just nod my head and say yes. (i can't build anything). Then he explained how it wouldn't work because he didn't have such and such other parts to put it all together. And then as I am finishing up my paper Adison comes in with his "potato" gun.....or as we like to call it.....a Pea Shooter. ...(lets just say we didn't have all the right parts)
Adison showed everyone and their mom his shooter. He still cherishes it to this day. Its like a little boy with a new toy. It is a bit anitclimatic, but I have to admit I was actually pretty impressed with his engineering skills. I don't think I could have ever made anything like that. We had a lot of fun with it. And this is the reason I will miss Adison a lot when he leaves on his mission. I mean who will make pea shooters on a boring Saturday with me. :)
