What an amazing party we had..everyone had a great time and laughed a lot! We started off with a shopping mall scavenger hunt. The teams were Older vs. Younger. I headed up the older team and my sister Elisabeth took the younger team. Bella and Grandma hung out in the play area and walked the mall.
Each team had $50 and a list of 15 tasks. The tasks ranged from buying things, finding the cheapest pair of women's red shoes at Nordstrom Rack, to jumping on the trampoline jump.... Each task was worth points depending on it's difficulty...the first team back that completed all the tasks got 10 bonus points, but the team that returned with the most money got 11 points! Shopping frugally is a great skill to learn! Here are a TON of pictures of our party!
This was my team...Robyn and Alyssa...the older girls! One of the tasks was to take a picture wearing funny hats.

Buying some earrings..as cute and cheap as they could find!

One of the final tasks was to pay 6.00 for a 3 minute jump..however you got 10 bonus points if you could convince the guy to let you both jump for 1 1/2 minutes...our team did it!

ReplyDeleteThat Twister set has been in my family since the late 60's early 70's!
It's seen a lot of kids over the year - happy to see it enjoyed again! : )
