Packing and Party Stuff

Today I've started packing toilet paper and paper towel (yes a few of the crew has that in already!).

I'm also getting stuff together for the games for the big end-of-the-week party the last day we're there. I've bought prizes a prize for each of the teams for the Watermelon Eating Contest and will be packing game stuff up as I get more of it together.

So far, I'm thinking we'll do:

  • Potato Sack Races (we already have the potato sacks from previous years)
  • Penny Pitching (with lots of little prizes for every winner)
  • Tug-of-War
  • A suitcase relay (two teams, one person takes a suitcase packed with lots of odds and ends of clothing, runs to a finish line, unpacks the suitcase and puts everything on, then runs the empty suitcase back to the start, takes all the stuff off and puts it back in the suitcase so the next team member can do the same. First team to finish, wins)
  • Bean Bag toss (or corn hole)
  • Water Balloon Toss
  • Slip-n-Slide
  • Watermelon Eating Contest
  • and of course The EXTREME Water Gun Fight

The water guns are supposed to be delivered today!
