Bori Family Summer Games

Welcome to...
 The Bori Summer Games
2011

The Bunny Hop:
dress up like a bunny and hop to finish line
Ayden, Scott and Kate
Had to do a re-do because Scott decided to run instead of hop.

 Chicken Egg Drop:
hold a golf ball with your knees and run to the bowl to drop your “egg”
Gabriel, Wyatt, Rebecca's Cousin

Wheelbarrow Race:
Hold your teammate feet up while they walk on their hands to the finish line
Rebecca's Cousin and Elliana, Zach and Austin, Rebecca's Uncle and Brooke

 Nosey Cotton Ball:
With Vaseline on your nose see how many cotton balls you can get into a bowl via your nose - no hands allowed
Rebecca's Cousin, Emily, Dude

Water Balloon Toss:
Two Teammate toss a water Balloon to each other while they take steps farther apart
Stephanie and Tiffany, Jena and Ivan, Eric and Ken

White Bubble:
Dig through whipping cream with your mouth to find a piece of bubble gum then blow a bubble
Rebecca, GJ, Skippy

Peanut Butter Face:
Smear peanut butter on a teammates face then another teammate throws cheese balls to see how many they can stick on teammates one's face
Wyatt and Nicole, Hector and Holly, Gabriel and ???
This got my dad pretty P.O.'ed because he despise peanut butter.  However even with a sour face and attitude he played... and lost, sorry.

 Booty Bounce:
Get all the ping pong balls out of a tissue box tied to your lower back by shaking your booty
Yvette, Kaitlyn, Veronica

 We had to go to instant replay to see who won this game - too many good booty shakers for one family. Thanks Mama for the good genes

Flour Toss:
 Toss flour -filled to a teammate who's holding a bucket under their chins and are blindfolded
Jessi and Sydney, Me and Zach, Mike and Genette
Not sure why I signed up for this one - I can't throw!
 These little flour balls were the hit of the night.  While the games were going on a new game got started by covertly hitting random people with the flour balls. And there was no denying you got hit with a nice flour circle to mark the spot.

The kids playing in the sandbox


Bree with Emily - she wasn't feeling good but was a trooper as long as someone was holding her


Marshmallow Blowout:
See how many marshmallows you can get on a target (sprayed with spray adhesive) by blowing them out of your nose 
Garrett, Spencer, Raymon
 Not sure about this race cuz Garrett was reusing not only his marshmallow but other peoples too - GROSS!

Doughnut Bite:
With a band under your nose holding you back be the first to bite a doughnut off a sting and eat it - no hands allowed
Jena, Spencer, Anthony

Poor Jena - the other players had the advantage

Jell-O Toes:
Using only your toes see how many wood beads you can get out of a bowl of jell-o in 30 seconds
Rebecca's Aunt, Rachel, Genette

Balloon UP:
2 Teammates try to keep 4 balloons up in the air
Jessi and Due, Eric and Nicole, Can't remember the other team


I had a whole team Stages of Life relay race planned but it got too late, too dark and too many mosquitoes were out.  So we called it good and came inside for root beer floats.  I totaled up the scores and the...
 Yellow Team
AKA
Ninja Vanish
WON! 

Yes they got their picture with the most coveted Pineapple Trophy.
I hope everyone had a good time and plans on coming back next summer for a rematch.  It'll be messier, funnier, and most of all it will be done in Bori style. 
Until Then!
