Founders Day 2011 Games

This year was a hot founders day.  It was very humid and very warm.  The kids were tuckered out by the end!  We didn't get quite as many pictures as usual, but we still had a blast.  So no pictures are included of the treasure hunt or scavenger hunt which were both a big hit!  We tried some new games from the minute to win it show and they were fun and kinda hard.  I would say the fourth annual Founder's day was a success!  The kids had a blast and that is really why we do this.

Some of the donuts fell prior to this game starting so just the kids participated!  This is a favorite game each year!
 I love Lillian's determination!
 Ashlynn was deep into the competition!
 Sack race!  Corban always wins!

 Three legged race~Corban loves this game as well.  Although we fell right before the finish we had lots of fun!  Lillian and Grandpa won!

 This game is a favorite of these two!  What could be more fun than to dress up run down and back and have the next person dress up?  They had to do this game a couple of times.
 Water balloon toss!  Lillian LOVES water balloons.  She soon took to simply breaking them to get the water to splash.  I must say this year this was a welcomed refreshing game!
 SPLASH
 This was right before a penny game.  No pictures of the actual game, but you use an egg crate and you have to get a penny in each section.  It was harder than it looked.
 Our final minute to win it game.  The noodle on a straw game.  Might I just say that our kids were really good at this.  Corban and Carson were smoking me every time.





Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for all the work you put into Founder's day each year.  Our family LOVES it and the memories we build each year are priceless.
