This past weekend was the annual Potter Picnic–Cort’s mom’s side of the family. There are five siblings in my mom-in-law’s family and each of the five sibling families wore a different color T-shirt. Ours? Yellow!
The Potter Picnic is fun, but it is SERIOUS fun! It is NOT your mediocre, run-of the mill family reunion. OH NO…
It all starts out with games…tournament style…where you get to compete for prizes. There is something for EVERYONE.
What a cool idea for a reunion. That's my kind of reunion!!
That is so cool!! I'm mad jealous of that awesome idea!! My dad was an only child, and my mom has three brothers, but the two surviving live all the way down in New Orleans so we don't see them often. But we (my parents, siblings and our spouses) often get together for family game night. Our personal favorite is either Trivial Pursuit or Pit, in which we get excruciatingly loud.
And that picture of the yellow team, you are totally cheesing it.
Wow! That is some family reunion, it looks like a lot of fun 😀 My family on my Mum's side is huge but we all so rarely see each other, it's sad. I love the photo of all of you together!
This kind of stuff is right up my alley. Can I join the yellow team?
That looks like so much fun! I would love for my family to do that!
I think my competitive self would love this.
But now my plans for the first birthday party seem rather mediocre.
You guys are seriously hardcore!! I've never been to a family reunion…probably because we all hate each other…kidding…just a little…no seriously…just kidding.
That is the coolest thing ever! I wish my family was awesome like that. 😉
SO FUN!! This is the coolest idea ever!! I'm so going to throw this at our family for the next reunion. Love the different colored shirts for every family, too!
Wow!
I am all kinds of jealous and impressed.
Our family reunions always look more like that Seinfeld episode where they talked about the Festivus holiday.
And now?
For the AIRING OF THE GRIEVANCES!
Yeah, like that.
Yours looks much more fun.
I think that is just so amazing. What a great family!!
Would ya look at the size of those trophies? Whoa!! Sounds fun though. Love the color coordinated teams too. I'm trying to play catch up still and finally got around to adding you to my blogroll. My google reader intimidates me a bit. Maybe now I'll do better. haha.
dude! we play cornhole all the time. cept we call it baggo. either way me and jim are like world champs :)so i'm classy too.
