Harvest Party Fun

Here at Kudjip Compound we don't need much of an occasion to have a party. We enjoy any reason for getting together as a mission family and having some fun. But it just so happens we had a reason this time, it was Halloween, ... ah, err, I mean it was Harvest Party Time. And so we got together and had a lot of fun. Some of us, as you can see, came in costumes and some didn't. Jeff came in a costume because his wife came up with a good idea (the part Jeff hates the most, that, and collecting all the pieces and parts to make a costume), aren't we a cute pair of dominos?! Jessica created a robot for her costume and Ethan came as an Elven Warrior (from the Lord of the Rings) as seen in the picture below left.

Aunt Becky and Aunt Erin had some games that we played, like water balloon toss, a scavenger
hunt and a good ol' fashion 3
legged race! And no hobo dinner time at the park would be complete without Uncle Scott leading the kids in a good game of flashlight freeze tag, of course in the dark. There was some wonderful home made treats as well. When the fire was ready we all placed our hobo dinners (a meal wrapped in foil) in the coals and waited for them to cook. It was a beautiful night at the park Uncle Bill created for outdoor enjoyment. Since the park is elevated, you can look across the open spaces to the mountains that surround us, and they are fun to gaze upon. And the moon was a brilliant ball of light hanging in a clear sky. A wonderful time to celebrate and a beautiful evening created by our Heavenly Father!
