Around the World

We had a ward activity a couple of weeks ago (I'm finally catching up) that was for adults only. We were all split up into tables and each table was a different country. We were Puerto Rico. Josh and I were the table captains and were in charge of organizing our dinner for our table and an activity that the whole ward could participate in. The Riveria's on our table are from Puerto Rico and did a wonderful job with our main dish and our beautiful centerpiece. The night was a lot of fun. I didn't take many pictures but got a lot of videos.

Here is a video of Josh participating in a noodle eating contest...

For our table's activity we got ideas from the new "Minute to Win it" TV show and did a big competition.

We started with "Suck it up" where you have to transfer M&M's from one cup to another by sucking them up to the end of a straw, without using your hands. (we varied it from the actual game)

The top 4 players moved on to "Dizzy Mummy" where they had to unroll a roll of toilet paper by spinning around without it breaking.
The top 2 players moved on to "On the nose" where they had to move cottons balls from one bowl to another only using their nose with Vaseline on it.

It was a great time. Some of the other games that we did were a grape throwing contest, hot pepper eating contest, sumo wrestling contest, making tulips out of paper, word scrambles, hula dancing and other ones that I can't think of right now.
