Fun Family Night

Courtney got in on the action. She even liked the mailbox more than her stroller. I think it was because mom was holding her.

Who would have thought, Mitch does a pretty good headstand.


Kids, don't try this at home!



At least they weren't strangers.

Thanks to Brother Mangum for the photo and Sister Mangum for the gum.

Christian did not like the grass, our "M" wasn't quite complete.

Last night we had an awesome family night. It was simple yet creative and most of all the kids loved it! We got together with our friends the Francoms. Then we went on a "Ward Photo Scavenger Hunt" Each family came up with 6 tasks for the other family to complete. There were only a few rules. First, all tasks must be in the ward boundaries. Second, no more then 2 tasks can include people outside of family. Third, Each family member must think of a task. Fourth, you have 30 min. to complete 6 tasks, being late costs you a task. The winning family was crowned "Master Scavengers", although in the end we called it a tie. The adults got a good workout since we ran all over the ward and the kids laughed their heads off.

The Francoms gave us some great tasks. Hitch hiking, making letters with our bodies, playing dead, Mitch standing on his head while the kids were flowers, making silly faces in the neighbors windows and last of all and probably the favorite; putting Courtney in a mailbox! I'm sure people who saw us wondered what we were doing. We met back at our house to show the other family the photos and celebrate the fun with Rice Krispies treats. It was a GREAT evening. P.S. no kids were injured during this activity although we caused a real commotion during the hitch hiking task. Special thanks to Steve and Jodi for picking us up (couldn't have worked out more perfect!)
