Spencer's "Survive" Thirty Five Party

 Ariana planned a great party for Spencer's 35th birthday party!   We headed down to Rigby to join the fun!  We missed Homecoming in Ashton, but Family First!

My niece, Nadia, is the cutest thing ever!  Before the party began, Nadia and I went through the garden and she told me what each of the vegetables were and we picked some raspberries!!!!

 Marek is a stud!  He is just enjoying his fruit kabob!

 The party was a Survivor party!  She based a lot of her things off of the party that we planned for my birthday, but she changed some things up!  It was really fun and we loved being a part of it!

The first thing was to bid on these plates to either get a reward or something gross to eat.  We got most of the things that were nasty!!  We had to eat....chocolate covered onions, chicken baby food with chicken broth and a salt and vinegar chip, some cayenne pepper soup, and some other good things too.

 The other team eating pickles with peanut butter!  Not too bad!

 Look at the bowl that the cayenne pepper soup came in.  She got it at DI!

 The second challenge was we had to do a relay using boxes.  Our team didn't do too hot!

 The next thing we had to do was a trivia question game.  We had a tie so Koch and I had to go head to head at a Staring contest!  I WON because as we were staring at each other I blew in her face and that didn't work, so I started to stick my tongue out started to "spit' on her that way!  The stare was BROKEN!

 We had to do a blind fold activity next!  We are so happy!

 We had to go out and listen to directions given by April to find clues out in the field.  Then we had to put the clues together.

 It was a pretty hard puzzle...there was three blocks that had Just,  a,  and written on them.  There was a serving platter, a little army man, a bee hive, a will, a snake, and a birthday candle that was a 2!  Do you know what the saying was....

 After the blindfold activity we had to do a standing on one leg contest.  April and Spencer went head to head.  They both stood there for five minutes.  So then we had to do a hold your breath contest.  Spencer went up against Aaron.  Aaron WON!  Which means, we got the reward.

 The last challenge was a Capture the Flag game.  Our reward was a free get out of jail card. 

Unfortunately we did not win Capture the Flag, which means we did not win Survivor!

 But, even though we didn't win, Spencer's team DID win and he is the birthday boy, so I suppose that is the way it should be!  We had such a fun time and we were so glad that we were able to go!  We met some great people who were on our team..April and Keith!  They are now our friends on FACEBOOK!!  Whoo Hoo!

Thanks for throwing such a wonderful party Ariana!
