Christmas in May

Secret Santa gifts, Christmas carol sing alongs, trivia, candy and the hokey pokey - what more could you ask for? Our stewardess for the trip was Fun Bus Girl who would roll her rubbermade cart up and down the aisle of the bus and hand out all sorts of things from candy to moist towelettes (distributed with tongs and the utmost love and care). She would periodically check in with us to make sure we were content or that we were actually singing along with the carols being played over the p.a. system and had found the corresponding carol on the sing-a-long booklet she's typed out for each of us. Our name tags were red or green sparkle felt made into mittens that were there to help us learn each other names. As one of the only three non-regular team members, it was helpful for me but as soon as the tags were gone, I was lost.

We paddled hard at the festival but we crashed... well, almost crashed but thankfully we held hard and stopped our boat in time. Considering that we still made pretty good time and were only about 5 seconds behind that same team at the finish so yay for us.

Indigo and I were helping out a breast cancer survivor team. It was particularity hilarious in the evening as we were getting ready to go to bed when one of them came up to me and asked if I wanted to hold her boob as she hands me a false breast! So funny! It was quite heavy and felt like the real thing complete with nipple. Those ladies are a blast!
