Father’s day…the games etc. Part 2/2

Now for the games on Father’s Day…they were so much fun!

First we played a handprint ID game…we all drew around our hands on a paper plate and put our name on the opposite side. Then dad had to guess which kid’s hand shape it was. All the left handed kids were spotted rather quickly=)

Then I did something for the little guys. I had my nephews JT and Max shave their dad and another one of my brothers (my brothers weren’t too thrilled about this=) but once JT caught wind of what was going on, he begged his dad and the contest was on). they used butter knifes to scrap the shaving cream off with. Of course JT won, he’s the oldest. But Max was by far the best to watch. First he takes his hand full of shaving cream and just loads it onto Samuel’s face. eyes and all were covered. Then he lost focus messing with the shaving cream on his hands=)

After the “trust me” or  “blind fold” game we had a sack race! Funniest thing you every saw. Watching them going down the yard hopping with all their might was too hilarious=) sometimes I think I come up with these games just to see what all I can get my siblings do. And of course I have to head up the games so I rarely participate. Besides I’m taking pictures=)

I took JT and Max to see the horses with Isaac….which, of course, turn into a scavenger hunt for horseshoes. They both found one! Its not like their not all over out in this pasture, where just horses have been kept for years. We all got muddy, me more than the rest – I had to carry JT over the creek aaaannnnd yeah, I slipped just a bit and but enough to splashed mud all over myself.

All in all Father’s day was a very eventful joyous day for our family! Enjoy the photos=)

  2. Looks like you had a amazing day! Our day was a more of a lazy resting day, since my Dad was really tired from working. The sack race looks fun! When I first saw the picture of everyone lined up it looked like everyone was wearing skirts! :D You came up with some pretty creative ideas. I need to take some lessons from you on entertaining! You did a great job!!! ~Hannah
