Our Family Decathalon

Every time we are ALL together, we try to do a decathalon. We think up 10 events and divide into 2 teams. Now that Trent is married, the teams are finally even. We draw names to see who will be on whose team. This time it just happened that couples were together and the teams were: Trent, Paige, Dave, Meagan and my dad, my mom, Christian and Tasha. Our respective kids were on their parents teams. It just happened that way. This time, here were the events:
1. Dance Dance Revolution
2. Horseshoes
3. Ping Pong
4. Scrapbooking (everyone does 1 page and then we have an impartial judge)
5. Speed Scrabble
6. Guesstures (basically, speed charades)
7. Kid Event (Hudson/Emery crawling race, and William/Keira stick horse barrel racing)
8. Egg toss
9/10-- didn't happen b/c my team was winning to badly that even if the other team had won both events, we still would have won!
Here are a few pics to document the events:

Horseshoes (Dave won) and DDR (Paige won)


The babies racing (Emery won) and the toddlers on stick horses (William won)
It is always SUCH a fun time. I highly recommend it for those of you who have families that like to have a good time!
