Andrew came up with THE BEST birthday party idea for me.
Isn't that SO FUN????
Since we were leaving on the road trip soon after my birthday,
we decided we'd have the party a couple months late.
He and the girls went to SO MUCH WORK to pull off a fabulous Survivor party.
The castaways:
Jeremy and Erika, David and Natalie, Michael and Shelley,
Andrew (the Jeff Probst of our evening), Shelly, Bea, Brandon, me, and Carrie.
We started off as three tribes:
Purple, Blue, and Pink.
Some of our blanket shelters:
Our tennis challenge:
It was SO HARD!
Luckily, David pulled off the win for our tribe.
Book balancing challenge
The three trained dancers had no problem with this one.
Once they had to start walking,
preggo Natalie was at a bit of a disadvantage!
Jigsaw puzzle race
Scrabble competition
Eating competition: peel and eat a mandarin orange ASAP
Shelly killed it!
Carrie getting moved from the
Winner-winner-chicken-dinner list
to the Loser-loser-Carlos-Boozer list.
Jeopardy!
Slide puzzles are HARD.
None of us completed it.
Rock-paper-scissors to see who made it into the finals.
I beat David out.
The three finalists!
It was a nerve wracking final tribal council,
but I ended up winning Survivor 41!!!!
Yes! Dream come true!
And I didn't have to get eaten by bugs or starve for a month!
Such a fun, memorable birthday party!
So thankful to Andrew and the girls for putting this together!
You guys are the best!
This is just unbelievably creative and cool! What a lot of work and love went into that party! And Andrew has a really professional-sounding Survivor-announcer voice!
