Family Night Dinner

Family Night Dinner has been a tradition in the Highlands since last summer, and has continued to this summer as well. Spring finally showed up here so the festivities were able to take place outside, which I think was the cause of the increased attendance and shenanigans. The workshop on the Hanna porch was transformed into the Waffle House. Clay was staged all night at the waffle griddle complete with his woodworking apron on. He said he lost track of the waffle count after mixing up the third batch of waffle mix. I am excited to say that Family Night Dinner has finally dissolved the Mason-Dixon line of the Tetons. By the number of people that showed up from the "North" you would have thought they borrowed the trail crew bus to transport everyone. But reportedly it was just one Honda and a lot of sitting on laps. We came up with a new game as well. It's called, "Get every piece of play equipment at the Highlands and throw them all around at once." Neat. With the seven frisbees, kickball, and footballs all going at once I kind of thought we might have to have Medic One respond to the Highlands. (wouldn't be the first time though) We were close though. My frisbee was quickly snatched out of the bonfire, with no harm to the frisbee nor the snatcher. Overall another excellent night at the Highlands.
Waffle House on Hanna porch. Jessica I think is posing for a commercial for Ready-Whip. And Kristen was very stoked about her waffle. A super safe game of "throw all your play equipment at once."Elsa showed up after changing lives at a Twilight Talk and started making Aebleskivers. I think around midnight we finally got to sample these Danish delights.
