Team Building Day

Today we spent the afternoon participating in team building activities at work and we had a blast!


At 11am we left the office and headed to the park for free hamburgers and hot dogs. As usual, the food was delicious. :)


Then we started the games. Tony, Greg, Elva, Carol and I represented our division in Family Feud. We kicked butt and placed 1st! It was a great way to start off the afternoon.


Then Tony payed volleyball while Greg, Elva, Carol, Janet and I played Guesstures. This game was a little more challenging for us and we were out during the first round...but we still had fun. :)


Next, Tony and I did the balloon toss. We were doing well up until there were 3 teams left (including us). I tossed the balloon a little too hard and not quite straight which resulted in it splattering on Tony. Sorry Tony, but at least we placed 3rd.


Then it was Mr. Harris, Camille, Woody, and me for the Dizzy Bat relay. Our team was doing great but in the home stretch, out of nowhere Mr. Harris and Maggie (from our neighboring team) were suddenly in the same spot and collided. The whole collision seemed to happen in slow motion yet still too quickly for any of us to react in time to prevent the collision. Fortunately after icing down one of the injuries, both of them were okay in the end.


Next, Tony, Elva, Carol, Dawn, and I competed in Taboo. We did great during the 1st round but the 2nd round did us in. Fortunately, we still placed 3rd.


Then during the final event of the day, Tony represented our division in the playground obstacle course and finished with the fastest and best performance at the slip-n-slide finish line which resulted in our division placing 1st for the obstacle course.


At the end of the day, they tallied all of the points and although our division didn't place 1st, we were content with our tie for 2nd place.


Go DPIA!

So if I knew psychology majors got to go back to grade school for their job, I might have changed my degree once more. Hey, wait I still can!
