September 13, Saturday
Last month, Ryan’s company held their Family Fun Day. The
weather was pretty nice and there were a lot of games and bounce houses, so we
had a good time.
They had a few competitions going on. Ryan participated in the
kickball tournament and I participated in the pie baking contest. I feel like contests/prizes
aren’t the best way to build friendship and unity with employees, but that’s
what Goodman/Daikin seems to like to do, so Ryan and I participate and try and make
the best of it.
Jared had a great time jumping and playing and getting his energy
out. He was happy to see Brenda and Kerry there.
Brenda came with us to watch him play for part of the time.
Brenda also entered the baking contest, with her chocolate cake. It was really
good! Since there were few participants for each category the judges combined
it into just one baking contest. Neither Brenda nor I won, but I was glad I participated
so I can still call myself a pie baker. ;-)
Near the end, Ryan
and Jared played golf chipping. I tried it; it’s really hard, so I was so
impressed with Ryan when he got one in. It was awesome! Jared was so cute.
Whenever it was his turn he would just hit the ball ‘til it was off the green
circle then he’d be done. Sometimes it would take a few tries, but he was very
proud of himself when he got it off.
Ryan’s team didn’t
end up winning at kickball, but Kerry, the only one of us who wasn’t trying to
win anything, won a gift card for playing one of the smaller games and doing
the best. But, he was very nice and gave it to us. J
It ended up being a
great day just being able to spend time together as a family!
