Then this little stinker tried to sneak in the picture.
He was in rare form right from the start.
He wanted to go outside and play in the rain.
And he wanted to rip the stickers off of the brand new hula hoops that Aunt Brenda had bought for some games. He had at least three good tantrums before we even got started.
When everyone finally arrived, Aunt Brenda had some games for us to play.
John really got into it.
And the next game he liked even more. There was a huge bowl of candy in the middle of the circle, and Aunt Brenda would say different things like "If you were born in Louisiana" or "If you can speak French" and if you "qualified" you could go get a piece of candy.
Funny thing.....John David seemed to "qualify" every time.
He was having a blast.
Then he got a little carried away.
And he got "disqualified" from the game.
He didn't appreciate that too much.
So Paw Paw took him and got him down for a badly needed nap. And then we played some super fun "Minute to Win it" games.
*Cookie Monster
*Merry Fishmas
*Cliffhanger
*Lollipop--If Katie's arm wasn't in the way, you could see Uncle Dave trying to blow Aunt Renee's lollipops down. So funny!
*Nosedive
*Nutstacker
*Christmas in the Balance--Love Sarah's expression!
*Hot Air Balloon
*Snowball Fight--Much harder than it looks!
*Spudnick
So much fun to watch. Then we had free time, and I tried to learn to play "Settlers of Catan".
For dinner we had Johnice's delicious seafood gumbo and boudin balls.
Then we had a little talent show. Aunt Brenda, JJ, Tiffany, and Katie played the piano, Austin and Gavin sang a song, and Austin showed us some of his awesome magic tricks.
We all had a great time, but by the end of the day, we were pooped. It's tiring having so much fun!
Can't wait til next time!
