Here are the themes our teams interpreted in photographic form:
1. Trust Me
2. Case Closed
3. On the Edge
4. How'd You Get in There?
5. Brother, I'm Committed
6. Help!
7. Let it Be
8. Hold My Hand
9. Yellow
10. Ladies First
11. Baby Steps
12. Think Twice
I put them all there together in case you ever wanted to steal the list for your own purposes. It really was terribly fun. I highly recommend it. In our case, since we had so many children, we stayed in our neighborhood so we wouldn't have to drive anywhere. We gave each team a list, and an hour to shoot. Here is what we came up with. There was no declared winner, but you can decide for yourself which ones you like best. They are each pictured with Team 1's picture first and Team 2's picture second. (Brady actually gave our team (2) the name of "Does this make me look Fete?" He definitely wins the prize for best team name.)
1. Trust Me
"Jump Jake, I gotcha!" |
Porter is not convinced |
2. Case Closed
Jake finally caught the neighborhood culprit |
This case is CLOSED |
3. On the Edge
4. How'd You Get in There?
5. Brother, I'm Committed
Sorry Jake, she already has a man |
No going back now |
6. Help!
7. Let it Be
Marty was singing 'Let It Be' while everyone did the lighters (okay, you have to imagine lighters) |
Yes, I super-imposed the 'B' on top of the kids |
8. Hold My Hand
My personal favorite of the whole night |
Go Team 2 |
9. Yellow
Yellow fire hydrant, wearing yellow, and yes...peeing yellow (pretend peeing!) |
Brady is the 'O'. Get it. Yell—O |
10. Ladies First
Probably my second favorite picture |
11. Baby Steps
We seemed to have the same idea on this one |
12. Think Twice
We didn't have to think twice about this picture |
Oh wait, did you notice that there is only one picture for 'Think Twice'? That is because Team 1 forgot to take a picture for that theme. So I guess they are going to have to think twice about claiming the victory for this game. So I declare, in my most unbiased opinion, Team 2—the winners. Or, if you will: Does this make me look Fete—the winners!
Really, we were all winners. Because we got to spend time together. Aaahhh.
Just kidding, Team 2 totally spanked Team 1. And if you have a different opinion, you are welcome to comment.
It's a good thing I am not too competitive.
Ummm... ya I am going to comment that team 1 is named team 1 for a reason... We are #1 lol
ReplyDeleteL-O-V-E the photos! You are all so creative! Looks like lots of fun.
ReplyDeleteBoth Dad and I agree that this was a very fun idea. We went through and voted for our favorite picture of each set (and we pretty much agreed in each case). Not counting number 12 (which had no competition), we voted for team number one five times, and we voted for team number two five times. And there was one we couldn't decide on. So I'd say you were pretty even. I can't imagine where you got that competitive spirit from . . .
ReplyDeleteI love it! The photos are so fun.
ReplyDeleteJake says, "We thought twice about taking our think twice picture, which means we are far more superior for actually thinking twice. Therefore we are the champs."
ReplyDeleteI think he is full of fluff! And, The only reason their team is named #1 is because they weren't clever enough to think of anything else! HAHAHA!!!!!
Those were awesome! So creative and clever!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun activity! I can't wait to do it sometime with our family.
