Scavenger Hunt


















Last Saturday we promised the kid we would go out to the beach for a day swimming at Cleowax Lake.  Unfortunately, mother nature didn't let us keep our promise as it was rainy and cold.  So, because Casey only had one more Saturday off before he enters the official wedding season (and he works every Saturday), we decided that we had to make it memorable.  Casey wrote up a photo scavenger hunt at the mall.  We divided into two teams and had 45 minutes to find as many objects as we could and take a picture.  (Note: if you decide to do this, be careful not to disturb the stores too much.  The mall doesn't really like scavenger hunts if they are asking the workers to do stuff.  A photo hunt is better because it doesn't distract from work or others shopping.)

Anywho, here are a few of the pictures that my team took.


















A child sized mannequin













a pair of hot pink shoes


















Holding your nose at the perfume shop.  (This place really does smell awful)


















A picture with the guy in armor


















A picture with a Build a Bear.  Okay, we did disturb the lady at the store for this one but in our defense, she wanted to be in the picture and she was just standing around showing off bears.


















A mannequin dressed modestly...harder than you might think!













A red bug.  We were lucky to find this little one in a toy store.  The other team took the exact same picture!













This picture put our team over the top.  We got bonus points if we spotted anyone from the ward.  The Claytons happened to be walking through the mall!  Woohoo!

Anyway, it was a really fun activity and it chased away the rainy blues.  (I'm thinking this would also make for a fun family home evening!  We may have to revisit that at a later date!)
