As you can see, there is still much to be filled in, in the way of activities and assignments for prepping/cleaning up meals. Activities don't have to be big things, but something to keep us occupied and not bugging each other :)
Some ideas we've had before:
family pictures
bowling
game time
family olympics (obstacle course, long jump, noodle throw?)
trampoline tricks
scavenger hunt(my kids LOVE these and they are pretty easy to put together, so I guess I'm offering to do one if others are interested)
Girl time (shopping/pedis/manis/just go for a walk, make overs, etc)
Boy time (basketball, football, sports, cars, races, etc)
Force the children who play piano to give us a recital
Minute to win it
We talked about each having some activities(craft/game/story time) ready to go, should we put those into the schedule so we know when they will be happening? I personally would love to spend some time with my sisters and momma... I still like you boys, but we sometimes like to do different things.
If you would be so kind as to comment on the highlighted things, that would be great! Also, was everyone happy with the food ideas and schedule?? Did I miss anything? Oh, is anyone interested in having a reunion tshirt??

Just found out about a kids bowl free program. All the kids would bowl free, but adults would have to pay. We would all need to get shoes. Shoe rentals are $2.50 and adult games would be $2.00. Kids would each get 2 free games. I checked and the Harmony Bowl in CO participates in this program. We'd all have register our kids. So, for example my family could bowl 2 games for about $23 plus tax.
The link, if you want to check this out is https://www.kidsbowlfree.com/center.php?alley_id=482
You can also check if your local bowling alley does this at that site, too.
Is this something we'd like to plug into the activity schedule??
Also was looking through some linkies, found some fun looking splash parks, that are free. Adrianne, have you been to these?

I think we would like to do a cupcake decorating table. We will have icing and fun toppings. We will need a table to set up on. I think we can pick everything else up when we get there pretty easily. (We have tons of sprinkles and stuff I might try and sneak in my suitcase!)
I think bowling would be fun, that cost is not prohibitive for us. But we don't need to go.
My kids LOVE splash parks (granted the only one we have ever gone to is in Florida, but they love it!)
I have heard there were splash parks but we didn't go to any of them last year. But the first one listed, is located at a super cool park, which is located in the heart of homelessville. Literally. We love the park and would be happy to go but just so you know, there are A LOT of homeless people walking near the park. I've never felt uncomfortable there but I've never gone myself--I went with a friend and then with Mike. I though the third link looked the coolest personally but if we go to the first one, it's also got the really cool park attached to it.
