Hello, Olivia here. Just thought I would take a turn writing a post. Over Labor Day Weekend we had our annual CARTER FAMILY REUNION! Do you know what this means? All us Carter's cram in our house all weekend (Luckily we have a cousin that recently moved here so all the cramming was split in half. WAHOO!) Meals are served in the garage, crafts are covering the floor, boys wake up at 6.... AM to go golfing, and most importantly we all participate in.... can I get a drum roll please............ THE CARTER FAMILY GAMES!!!! HOORAH!
Meet The Blue Team
The Green Mean Fightin' Machines
The Orange.... um.. Players!
The Yellow "No time for pictures" Team
and of course the best saved for last
The Pink everyone else STINKS TEAM! AKA we run this shindig.
Our weekend consists of planning the games so all the other peeps can have a good time. That's right we do it all for you Family, and I would have say this was one heck of a reunion!
Now before i give you the whole LOW DOWN in pictures let me explain how these little games all work out. As you see above we split our family into four teams. Finding out what team you are on is the best. Before we started us pinkies hid easter eggs around the yard. Everyone had to find their egg which was their team color. This one is my favorite. I get to enjoy watching them all run wild as they try to find their egg. HA HA. After this is done the Games BEGIN!! These are tough games people, seriously we have cheering, running, cookie shovin', bums being slapped with newspaper, Simon says, and if we are lucky we also get to see some girlies WETTING their britches (if ya know what I'm sayin')!
Here we go lets see this all in action shall we....
The Games were AWESOME and congrats the THE GREEN TEAM! They won First place with the lovely reward: A PLUNGER :)
What made this weekend perfect was well this...
ENJOY!
