GAME #2

Okay Tita, I Read your Post And I Thought Of Another Game Or Activity We Can do In Hawaiii, At The Beach Whoever Can Find The Biggest Star Fish =] That'd Be Cool To See Some Gigantic Star Fish Other Then Seein Patrick On SpongeBob lol! Okay You Guys Think Of More!,,, But We Know We Won't Be Bored In HAWAii.!!! =]

Get Involved!

Ok since we didn't get much response for ideas/comments/suggestions/etc. from EVERYBODY like I wanted, I think we should come up with more games/challenges for the trip. That way we really won't have ANY dull moments while we're all together (like we would anyway) but still. Sister had the great idea of the picture under water and I think we can come up with more. It will be fun!!! And you know how competitive EJ and Sabrina are. LOL
