sunday funday

Even though it's just the beginning of your sunday (if you're in America)- here in Fiji, Sunday is coming to a close, and it's been a fun and exhausting day. Today marked the first annual STINT Decathlon:: 10 events. 6 participants. 1 winner.

To break up the sometimes monotonous feel of everyday ministry, we decided to spice things up with a little friendly competition among the six of us.

The line-up:
1. u.s. capitols quiz
2. pasta threading: use a fettucine noodle in your mouth and string rigatoni pasta noodles through the fettucine noodle

3. cup stacking: making pyramidal formations with plastic cups

4. 100 meter sprint

5. triple jump

6. chubby bunny with marshmallows
7. logic puzzle

8. pool run-around: how fast can you run around the ledge of the pool without falling in

9. pool somersaults without taking breaths

10. pool handstands

it was such a fun day! the results were:

gold: dave
silver: brian
bronze: me!

the winners of the 100-m dash: 1. rob, 2. dave, 3. mary

the guys thought that matching outfits would give them an extra edge
this is me and my game face. prepare to die. (joking) (sort of)

  1. I wrote a long comment saying how great you are and, if you didn't have that big smile, your authentic Mayan war paint would have me believe you could chop off...etc, etc. ...That somehow was deleted.

    So I'll just say: GREAT JOB, KORI!!! I am proud of you and your bronze (next time the GOLD!) and I love you, I really miss you, and you are constantly in my prayers.

    Love, Dad
