Harvest Party

Last night our team had a harvest party. It was so much fun. The moms here are so creative and enthusiastic when it comes to stuff like this. They put the whole thing on. Parents and people from the visiting team manned the booths. Since our boys are little, we didn't have to work but just walked around with the kids. There were about ten games. Smash the bottles, ring toss, cake walk, Frisbee toss, face painting, popcorn pop, bean bag toss, licorice race, marshmallow game, a water game where you shoot the bottle down the tube with a water gun, then a game with shooting little men with a bow and arrow, and throw the sponge on a person. The kids had 15 tickets each to play the games. It even rained a little which really made it feel like fall. We had loads of fun! Thanks to our team for putting it on! We enjoyed it!

Me trying to explain the smashing can game (just throwing the ball to knock over the cans).

Ring toss

so excited to get the candy

Kenan really enjoyed this game. I just love watching his expressions.

And the face painting. Batman wanted a spider web with a spider on it.

D likes getting all tatt'd up.

The marshmallow game. so cute. You are supposed to suck the marshmallows into your mouth and then spit them out and place them on the circles on the paper. This is to be done without hands. (for the older kids, the marshmallows were mixed with dream whip to make it more challenging). But sweet Kenan didn't quite understand and used his hands to pick up the marshmallow, put it in his mouth, then take it out and place it nicely on the paper. so cute.

Dawson knew what to do.

The final seconds...it was a perfect tie! :)

Silas just enjoyed eating. Here's the cupcake from the cake walk.

then a crunch bar. Ok, he ate two crunch bars, but they were little.

It was such a fun evening. We then roasted hot dogs which a team member had gotten from Dakar. For a little bit, we felt like we were back in the States enjoying all the fall festivities!
