Trek Family Games

Last night we had a big Trek Family competition night. (Friendly competition, of course!) We competed within our companies for blue ribbons -- which we will attach to our family flag, that will hang on our Trek handcart. We are part of the RED company, so we competed against the other Red company families.

The games were as follows: (I forgot to take pictures of everything! I was having too much fun!)

The Wheel Roll Relay: (Keeping a Hulu-hoop rolling with a stick, back and forth down the gym.) I totally stank at this one, but most people were pretty lame at it! Some of our kids really had it down!

The Stick Pull: Our family rocked this one, and walked away with the blue ribbon! We have some tough and competitive kids in our family -- I LOVE it!

The Handcart Repair Relay: (Hammering a nail in a piece of wood, easier than it sounds in a hurry!) Our team was SO close to having it, but I need to work on my hammering skills -- my nail bent!

The Wagon Push: (Hauling people back and forth in wheelbarrows.) Again, super close for our team . . . the judge was looking the other way when we crossed first!

The Egg Toss: (Stand across from a partner and toss raw eggs, each time you catch egg you take a step backward.) My partner and I rocked this one, we were the last girls standing, and in the last 3 partners standing when our dang egg broke in Alyssa's hands. (She caught it perfectly, but we were chucking the eggs pretty far when it broke!)

This was the starting line . . . we ended up way far apart! Poor Alyssa was covered in egg!

Alyssa, my partner, is the tall girl in the middle on the right

The Bucket Relay: (Filling a bucket of water using a spoon passed through each member of the family.) WE WON!

It was a super-fun night. I LOVE our family!

Our kids are so good, and they worked really well together.

We walked away with 2 blue ribbons to attach to our flag!

I am getting excited -- only 2 more months!

Yippee!

P.S. I NEED A BONNET
