Maughan Minute to Win It

We were in charge of the Maughan family night this past month so we decided to do minute to win it.  It was so much fun and yes, we got a lot of good blackmail pictures!  Ha ha ha!  So here's some highlights from the night.....There's the oreo-on-the-forehead-and-get-it-in-your-mouth-with-only-using-your-face-muscles game.  
A crowd favorite.

 
Uncle Alan tried the jump and flip it in your mouth method.
 Grandma even got into it.


 Then you had to construct the front of a cereal box cut into even pieces.  It's a lot harder than it looks to do only in a minute.

 Stack the cups, which I thought would be super easy, but nobody did it in under a minute.

 Rach was very proud when she did it, but it was well over a minute.
 There was the stack-three-golfballs-on-top-of-each-other game.  Which nobody was able to do.
 How many marshmallows can you throw into your partners mouth?  The record was 15.
 Then there's the make a smiley face out of m&m's by sucking them through a straw. 
 Trav eveantually did the 3 golfballs but it took him like 15 minutes to do.  I'm so proud!
 And now he looks like an official architect.  Look at those specs! So handsome.  And this is after years of putting off going to the eye doctor because he didn't want to feel old.  Lookin' good Trav, Lookin' good.  How many fingers am I holding up?
 We also finally got some decent snow.  Not the flaky powdery stuff but stuff you can actually build a snowman with.  So here is our totally awesome snowman which the kids painted.
 The snowman wasn't the only thing that got painted.


 Here's the masterpiece in it's finality.
 Time to take a little break for a snow snack.
 And what in the world is that?  Is that an actual sunset?  I don't think we've seen one in over a month, let alone the sky!   Winter's aren't so bad if we get one of these once in a while.  But spring.....we're ready for you.
