We drove up Tuesday night and made it to Honeyville where our car got ripped up by some metal spool that got dropped off of someone's truck. Lucky for us Emily and my mom came to save the day and we spent the night at Peter and Emily's house. The next morning we talk to our insurance people and were able to get a rental car and were on our way up to Idaho by about 1pm.
The day we left our AC was running, by the time we got to Idaho it was cold and raining. We got to Pam's house just as the party was starting.
Raining, yes.
Cold, yes.
Were we still going to have fun? HECK YES!
Some of the games or things we had to do to get points were:
1. Digging up potatoes.
2. Picking plums.
3. Finding a pumpkin in the patch with a certain letter on it.
4. Picking veggies to make a fresh salad.
5. Bowling with pumpkins.
6. Making a fall center piece with stuff you collect outside.
7. Small games that you had to time yourself to see how fast you could do it.
8. Matching flowers and their names.
.....that is all I can remember.
It was so much fun! We lugged Anna around with us until the mother in me said she had better stay inside because she was getting really wet. Pam watched Anna and we were able to finish the rest of our games outside. By the time were were done we were so wet and muddy. It was fantastic!
We had a great time. Devin's family is so fun to hang out with. We are glad we made the trip.
Go to Pam's blog to get all the details and more pictures.
***Side note, we did win the game. Thanks to all of you who helped us win, we couldn't have done it without you.***

Sounds fun! We always did the same thing in our sandbox when we were little. It was so much fun when Seth, Luke, and Braxton were old enough to "teach" them how to build up the sandbox and then flood it!
