This weekend is my class reunion. I am in charge of games and prizes, boy did they pick the right person! When I told my husband that my blog post today was going to be about the games, he said why. Well, in response to him, I informed him that not all creativity is always about what you make, you can be creative in many ways. He still didn't agree but it's my blog not his! BTW, this picture is of a pillow that I made before graduation that has all of the names of my classmates cross stitched on it and then it was signed by everyone. It is a great keepsake.
What to do for a reunion...bingo was an early thought but making all of the cards seemed like a bit much. Before the games begin, (LOL) let me tell you that in my graduating class there were 44 people and about 200 total student at the high school. We pretty much knew everyone so there will also be people from other classes attending. Everyone always thinks it is weird to have so few people but it was great.
On to the games. Since we graduated in the 80's it gave me a lot to work with. My first game is a trivia type game. It is broken down four categories, the first is the year 1986 and the second is matching the event to the specific year it happened. The third and fourth sections are more trivia, one is entertainment and the other is trends and fads. It really brought back memories researching this.
The next activity is the bucket list. There is a list of 40 things ranging from accomplishments to travels and more.
The one that I just finished last night and it the replacement for bingo is name that tune with out music only a line or two of lyrics. This is harder than you think! My husband was the guinea pig for this one. He struggled and he is a music trivia whiz. Hopefully everyone will have a great time, it's always nice to reminisce and catch up on where life has taken us all. Good night all!
