Playing Billiards...on November 25, 2019


 Billiards was a big hit when the gang was all here!
My one rule for the younger guys was:  no playing unless an adult is there...and to use the little, well, I'm not sure what it's called, but it helps hold the cue stick.  I was a little worried the felt would get torn by the younger ones.
 Gabe was helping the guys play...even Walt was enjoying it!



 Emerson played the most...and so Gabe was showing him how to really hold the cue stick.




 Saddie was enjoying watching her grandsons and great grandsons play.
 Sullivan was more interested in the airplane than the billiards!

 Well, hold on a minute.  He changed his mind and decided to check out the balls.


 I know this one is blurry, but I love it because the younger boys were fascinated when Gabe or Joshua 'broke' the balls.
 Even Sullivan was excited.
Actually, he was excited about Baxter...and throwing the ball to him.

 Joshua and Gabrial, both, were explaining to the boys (and me) about how the balls were to be put in the rack.

 I do believe this was a serious game!


 Gabe was attentive...and started letting Emerson try his hand at holding and shooting the cue stick.


 Papa was ...being Papa!
A fun time in the basement with the billiard table!
