"Man, they're strategizing and you're over there eating chex mix." ~ Hillary

Although games of farkle, skip-bo, dominoes, etc. fill the days and nights at the beach...
after a scrumptious fish fry...

 the Saturday night festivities are highly anticipated and consequently the most competitive.

For many years the Saturday night entertainment, 
under the leadership of our resident director of FUN...
 was the White Elephant Game...
where a very large pair of white underwear, 
and a handmade necklace with matching earrings made of bottle tops and yarn, 
always returned to lay amongst other more 'useful' gifts, 
equally wrapped in beautiful paper tied with fancy bows, 
just waiting to be chosen.

Yep...
you can be sure,
no one tried to steal those from the lucky "new owners"!
A bikini top made from coconuts always provided great photo ops, but mysteriously did not return one summer.

Meanwhile...
last year, a new game emerged and has teams of two cheering each other on to compete for the coveted...
championship of Minute to Win It...
to reign as champions for an entire year.

Things got pretty serious around there but in the end...
after a bit of controversy not to be rehashed for the world to see...
Hillary and Andrew won and hold the title until next summer.

Do you have any annual family events?

Have a terrific Tuesday!
