It's that time of year again-time for the Melaleuca Picnic! It's a time for free cotton candy and soda, all the bbq you could possibly eat in 5 hours and free prizes. This year we got a great spot sitting with some friends; of whom all of us had been at the Extreme race earlier that morning- we clean up pretty nice, huh?
Pablo and our friend Miguel won a competition game while we were there and both won movie money and gift cards to a bar and grill place close by. Did someone say date night? haha.
I also got a little lucky. This year they had a helicopter fly overhead and throw down buckets of ping-pongs, each marked with a number 1-3. Chaos reigned as people fought and scrambled to pick up as many ping pongs as they could. Pablo was smart, instead of looking up at the helicopter and watching all the ping pongs fall, he looked on the ground- he ended up getting 8 ping-pongs! I was one of those people staring as the balls fall from far above us and only ended up getting 1 ping pong. What can I say? Some of the people there were willing to get much more aggressive than me. Either way, It ended up with a surprise ending. We ran up the hill to get the prize associated with the number on our ping pongs and I began to realize that no one else around me had a 3 on their ping pong except me. So I was pretty sure that I had a lucky ping pong in my hands...
I have never had an iPod of any kind before! I can't wait to open it up and use it during my workouts! Thank you Melaleuca for treating my husband nice, helping us pay our bills and giving out free gifts and food at your partys. We are so blessed:)
