Mini Cornhole

First of all, if you're not from the midwest, you may not know what Cornhole is...so you might want to read this. It explains Cornhole.

Anyway, any time we are at a party and Cornhole boards are present, Cate gravitates towards them. She loves to put the bean bags into the hole. Unfortunately, we don't have a set of Cornhole boards of our own. Fortunately, Cate's grandparents (Eric's mom and stepdad), recognized Cate's love of Cornhole and picked up a kids' size Cornhole set for her.
This little girl loves it!
She doesn't quite "get" Cornhole and can't quite toss the beanbags that far. But she enjoys standing right at the foot of the boards and trying to toss the beanbags in from there. Here's a little video of Cate "playing" Cornhole:


We've spent quite a bit of time out in the backyard playing this game already. Thankfully our basement has plenty of space for us to set these up down there this winter. Now Mommy and Daddy need to get their own grown-up sized set of boards and we'll be all set for some real backyard fun this spring.

Thanks again Grandma and Poppy for such a fun game!

I went to a wedding last summer where they had cornhole at the reception. The set was in the colors of the high-school the husband teaches at, even had the mascot painted on! (Although, not gonna lie, I kinda want a Disney princess set for myself!)
