giberiginal 2015

aka The Giberson 2015 reunion.  "giberiginal" is the 'company name' which my mom would put on the handmade cards she would make us.  I thought she had come up with it but it was actually my brother, Todd, and Mom was the first to use it. (No surprise that my brother, Todd's son, Niles, is in advertising.)  We thought it was about time that we used it for our reunion and it was the perfect touch to all of the fun gathering, games playing, and conversations.

On Friday and Saturday we had a shelter complete with a little kitchen to use.  They had just gotten round tables and new folding chairs which made it perfect for eating and especially for game playing.





Gary thought we need a picture of this sign--
Good clarification with the added "+" "worms" and "candy worms" are
two different things especially in fishing country like this.
 
At the corner of the camping area was a tiny little food shack where we had lunch on Friday.

 Let the Giberson game playing begin........inside


 And outside..............
The grassy area was great for ladder ball, ultimate Frisbee,
and horse shoes--plus tag and the other outdoor games people like.

Allison Neerings--we teach them early in our family
 Friday night we had a first official organized activity:  Dinner and Minute-To-Win

 
Balloon Blowing to knock over the cups
Dad and Karla
 
Ben did great at this one....

Picking up cotton balls and putting them into a bowl
 
The trick is Vaseline on your nose
 
Definitely a trick one for Jena and her tiny nose,
but she worked hard.

 Audrey (above) and Duncan (below) are working
to bounce the ping pong balls out of a small box in
one minute.
