And the day just continued with activities! Glenn and Robby streamed a football game and enjoyed watching that in front of the fire!
Jaime and Jessi were in charge of dinner Sunday evening! Green Enchilada Soup and Southwestern Chile! It was excellent!!
After dinner, the adult kids cleaned up and then it was time for the minute-to win it games!! I had brought lots of supplies and the girls helped me figure out how to do all of them in our small space! It was an absolute riot!! Lots of laughs!
Here they're trying to stack 3 large marshmallows with their hands behind their backs! Jessi was the designated person to tell us who went next and who would partner up with another person when needed!
In this game, you put a dice on your forehead and had to stand up! Most of us accomplished it!
Papa's head was perfect for stacking 5 dice!! But then he had to hold it till the timer went off!
Here they are stacking miniature marshmallows! (yes, I had TOO many marshmallow games - ha!)
This game got absolutely crazy! The object was to put a spoon in your mouth, hands behind your back and scoop mini mashmallows into your own bowl from a big bowl in the center The first batch to do it discovered it was much easier to scoop or should I say TOSS the marshamallows into someone else's dish and then they would help you out!
I was exhausted when the games were over as we did 10 of them!!
A family photo - hooray!!! I always love these!!
After the games were over, some of the kids went back down to the gym. A bunch of us stayed in the big cabin and tried out a new game that was given in the grab bag called Sketch It. OMG!! Talk about laughter! You have to draw and I'm a complete failure at this!! Once you draw, you pass your tablet all the way around the tablet for others to guess and it's hilarious! Since I couldn't draw worth a darn, all of my drawings were hideous and we all laughed and laughed!! What a night!
But all good things must come to an end - we packed up the next morning! So will leave you with this cute picture of Gwyn eating her lunch one day at the big cabin! She sure enjoyed her time, as did all of us!!
We all assumed that this year would be our last year to do this - but we say this every year and everyone STILL wants to go back! So will we go again??? Only time will tell!
