Reunion 2

Since we last chatted, I have not participated in the golf or tennis tournaments (big surprise), however I have participated in the following:

-Water Wars- a fun game where everyone stalks each other with water guns. What's funnier than water guns squirting dry people? Buckets full of pool water being poured on unsuspecting dry victims.

- Scavenger Hunt- we team up and collect items (amazing race style). Some things we had to do- human pyramids by road signs, imitate a mariachi band with whatever items we could find. Using only our bodies, spell out our family name by a palm tree. Weave a cup, basket, or random item out of local greenery available on the island. It was roughly 1000 degrees outside so making it back to the house was the real reward it didn't matter who won. (not my team)

- Game Night- I had the ambitious idea of completing a 1000 piece Normal Rockwell puzzle after showing up to game night at least 2 hours late. I think only the borders of the puzzle were finished by the time game night was over. Not one of my high points.

- Young Adults Night (Parts 1 & 2)- nothing like teaching the future generations of college students flip cup, beer pong, kings, ring of fire, high low, etc while they are between the ages of 11-15. One great thing about house parties full of your cousins? It's not embarrassing at the end of the night to strip to your underwear and jump in the pool.


Off to play family feud with the family. I am, with the help of a few others, planning the family Olympics for tomorrow. It's the main event and it is an intimidating job... But I have plenty of hula hoops so it should go well.
