My oldest gave birth last Friday to my newest Granddaughter Ayla Marie. Both Mom and baby are doing well. They both came home Sunday.
While Ayla was being brought into the world, my wife and I watched our Grandsons Westin and Kylor. While 4 year old Kylor kept our house safe from fire and crooks
his 7 year old brother Westin got his first taste of Grandpas hobby of wargaming. I found some old plastic FASA Mechs in the basement. I called Mrwigglesworth and my friend Kevin. They brought their sons over and we sat down to teach and to paint a Mech each.
We then proceeded to play a game using simple rules I made up the night before. How did it go? This should answer your question
We played Sons vs. Dads
.and the Sons brought it to their Old Men. A great time was had by all
especially by Westin when he shot his Grandpa in the back and destroyed my cockpit
..
The final score Sons: 1 Mech destroyed, Dads: 1 Mech destroyed, 2 Mechs with pilots that ejected. The day and the battlefield belonged to the young'ns!
More pictures of the festivities can be found here:

The best part, when we were done, all the kids want to play again.
What a GREAT weekend!
