Chris and I

Here is one of the games we played... We were divided into 2 teams, and given 3 bags of "secret" items. We had 5 minutes to open the bags and decide a theme and how to dress ourselves in them. {TEAM 1} ALUMINUM FOIL, CONSTRUCTION PAPER, and RIBBON. We decided to become WARRIORS!


{TEAM 2} PURPLE PLASTIC TABLE CLOTHS, GREEN STREAMERS, and WHITE GARBAGE BAGS. They decided to become ONE EYED, ONE HORNED, FLYING PURPLE PEOPLE EATERS.


This is Chay and he was the One Eyed, One Horned guy! {Pretty Clever of them I thought!}

The next part of the game was a SCAVENGER HUNT. We had to run to the neighbors houses to find 3 things...
1. A PENCIL
2. Something with a PUMPKIN on it
3. Four large MARSHMALLOWS
{we had to take a picture to proove we got them from different places}

Whatever team got back to the house with all of the items FIRST won Gift Certificates to Cold Stone Creamery!

And because Chris and I are such COMPETITIVE people our team WON!!! Woo Hoo!

All in all we had a really FUN night! It was really fun remenicing about old times with the cousins! We have a lot of good memories together! Untill next time...
