So what activities do you choose to do with a family of eight boys and two girls? Well, we pretty much decided as we went along!
Here are a few pics of the evening with the Reed's.
Wade wanted to prove that he could jump over a stick backwards and forwards. After a few tries, he got it!
And of course we had to have at least one arm wrestling match!
Janelle was ready to take me on right after her brother, and wow! she is one strong girl! :oP (I love the face James is making, he looks like HE is the one arm wrestling!)
We also had a few good games of "kick-the-can" in the freezing rain! The slide marks and grass stains on the jeans were quite plentiful after playing that one!
After spending up our energy outside, we came in for a game of Sound-Off before the Reed's had to leave.
Emily really got into her acting part! :o)
Layne explaining to Connor why he won't play with all those weird older kids who aren't saying anything, but going crazy acting out things!
James, trying to get his team to understand a phrase.
And Arielle is wondering "Why is this guy holding me?"
Drew pulled out his camera near the end of the evening for his family blog
I liked this picture of Arielle that the professional photographer of the evening took with my camera. Thanks Janelle! :o)
We enjoyed having the Reed family over very much. They are a great family that has an evident love for each other and the Lord. Thanks for stopping by guys!

That picture of Connor and Layne is too funny. It really does look like they're doing what you speculated they were. :)
The Balderash game looks like the exact opposite of a game we sometimes play called Password. In password, you're not allowed to make any gestures but instead give various words as hints to the word you're thinking of. It's a neat concept.
It looks like you all had a very fun time!! Thanks for all the pictures you guys always post. That's the funnest part of looking at blogs! :-)
Wow, you finally got to meet each other...now, we just need to meet you all (McDonnells). Looks like you'll had fun we always do when we're together! :-)
Hay, it was great to meet you all (most for the first time, and re-meeting the others). I think its been a few years since I saw/talked to any of the "others" LOL
Dinner was great (thx to those who made it) and I had a blast playing "Kick The Can"
to continue the trend...:)
Yes "kick the Can" was GREAT!!! And Sound-Off was quite entertaining too.
Thanks again for having us over.
Looks like a whole lot of fun!
Poor Layne! (It's a cute pic tho :))
