par-tay

So, we had a pretty eventful ward party last weekend. We were among the few who decided to plow through the ridiculous snow storm to get to the church. I had already made a pie, so we figured we pretty much had to go.
They ended up having all sorts of contests ... and Scottie and I just couldn't stay away. I don't know if my fearless hubby fully knew what he was getting himself into when he entered the pie eating contest ...
But he ate and ate and ateand came out the victor!

Given, most of his competition were girls under the age of 12 and small children ... but there were a couple teenage guys in the mix ... I've never been so proud
Miles had a hard time keeping it together while daddy was going to town on his pie. I thought he wanted his dad ... but it turned out he just wanted to have a contest of his own. So, we grabbed some pie and he did the rest.
What a little tiger.
When they pulled out the hula hoops, I knew I had to give it a whirl ... and I won! Again, mostly girls under the age of 12. But, those are the ones with the most recent experience, right? ha! I thought we had all had enough ... then they busted out the limbo stick! Winning a couple contests is a reasonable quota for a family of 3, but I've never been known to pass up the chance to get down. It was awesome. Oh, and sorry, no limbo pics. Surprisingly, a front-on view of bending over backwards is not so flattering.

PS, all you Saddle Rock Wardians ... you better bring it next time.

Dang, I'm sad we wimped out on driving in that snow and missed the Coleman's in action.:) I totally would have beat Scott in the pie eating contest.:)

Oh man! That is hilarious! Kennedy said he was too funny! She came home SICK after eating her pie and told us she would never eat cherry pie again!
