07/07/07

Many of you may not be aware of Matt's family reunion holiday thingy, which we refer to as PIGWAB. That stands for "Party in Gear Without Any Beer", since we don't drink! I can't believe I am telling all of you this... but here goes. Every thirteen months, we have a little reunion with Matt's Dad's side of the family and we call it PIGWAB, as aforementioned. We started this tradition on January 1, 2001 and continued with February 2, 2002 and so forth. So, of course, this year we celebrated on July 7th, 2007, 07/07/07... Each year we have a different theme, typically falling in line with the corresponding holiday of the month. SO, this year's theme was a Patriotic, All American PIGWAB... and if you have followed this far, here are some pictures to reward you for your time!


Daphne and her cousin, Luke Skywalker, (yes... that really is his name!) enjoying the Bluebell Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream that Matt's parents so generously buy in 3 gallon drums from Outback Steakhouse!

Matt lighting fireworks in the PIG-BOMB contest (each guy designed a pig and rigged it to blow up with fireworks- not real pigs, though... that would be gross.)

Isaac bobbing for apples, in the PIG-BOB contest...

Mommy and Daphne...

The sack race... I apologize for my arm right in front of Isaac racing, but we didn't get a whole lot of pictures of that boy- he won't hold still long enough! We all had a lot of fun on this one!




Isaac and Daphne participating in the children's pie eating contest... Matt and I were in the Adult pie eating contest, but we'll haver to wait until we get pics from someone else, as my face was in the pie!



Here we all are participating in the PIG-LOB water balloon toss...
