After, we broke into two teams and played minute to win it style games. That was a real hit! There was blowing a ping pong ball across three cups full of water, emptying a tissue box with one hand, sucking smarties up with a straw and transferring them to a cup, bouncing a ping pong ball into the holes of an egg carton, knocking plastic cups over with ping pong balls stuffed in the end of panty hose worn on your head, grabbing coins out of the end of a pair of panty hose and dropping a ping pong ball into a plastic cup while standing on a chair! All the games went over well, and we didn't finish until it was almost 10pm...before everyone departed to bed for the night we had a quick talent show. It was a great night!
During the games we only had one fiasco!!! While spectating some of us were sitting ON the dinning room table and then in an instant we were not!!!! The table collapsed, and I mean really collapsed!!! Metal bars were bent, it broke right down the middle. Thankfully no one was badly hurt. Bowen managed to get a nasty scrape and Emry had a wicked bruise on the back of her leg. While we were standing looking at the mess Grandma mistakenly says "The table is fine!!" In actuality meaning the floor was fine, and no major scratches were made. It was funny because the table was clearly not fine!!
The next morning we all met for breakfast, visited while the kids played then had a quick and easy lunch before heading to the lake to go for a boat ride! Everyone had a blast on the tubes and with it being so hot the beach was a real hit too!!!
We finished the night off with hamburgers! It was a great weekend, quick but fun! I love spending time with Jared's brother and sister's and the spouses and kids!! I truly feel like I belong to the Puzey clan, they have accepted me and welcomed me with open arms and I truly am grateful to be able to call myself a Puzey! I love how different we all are but when together those differences melt away and we catch up on all the coming and goings. We may not talk to each other everyday but it doesn't seem to matter, we always pick up where we left off! I am grateful for Myrna, for the insight she has in putting these get togethers on and all the prep time she puts in to making it fun and getting everyone involved!! Next year she will be away on her mission so we will have to take it upon ourselves to get everyone together!! Maybe a camp out at Little Bow? Whatever we do will be fun, I'm already looking forward to it!
I love how everyone is using the broken table picture of Leah's. She should get some royalties or something. ;). The minute to win it games where a great hit. Fun evening.
ReplyDeleteIt was a fun weekend. We definitely need to get together next year too. I think a camp out at Little Bow would be awesome. Lalainia
