Jenks Family

Last night Seila thought she needed to have a party because she and her friends are not old enough to go to the Homecoming dance. Our Saturday schedule was tight but we were able to fit it in. So, after a cross-country meet in Connell, helping clean up an afternoon wedding reception, and the Relief Society broadcast (which was so uplifing, dont' you think?) I helped Seila host a party. Fortunately, my friend went to Costco on Friday and picked up some heat and serve food. We didn't do any decorating, mostly because we spent all our time cleaning but also because we're really not into that. We did play a scavenger hunt game. Justin and I each drove one team around Royal looking for certain pictures. It was a sports theme and so some of the pics to get were pinning a total stanger to the ground, making a free throw shot with a football, kicking a field goal, standing at the end of a diving board fully-clothed. They were all worth different points so we could tally a winner at the end. We had a fun time. This would be a great family reunion game or group family home evening game. There are several different versions of the game so you could play a few different times and not have the same items. There is also a list of things to collect but we didn't have that much time and I didn't want the girls bothering other people. Here are just a few of the pics:
