What's a Valentine Couple Party without a few games to get you laughing and upclose & personal with your spouse? Not a Seamons' Partay for sure. Games from last year were so fun that we almost just did them again BUT.... we didn't. ;) New memories with new friends are always a good thing, right? Turns out that's true because this year's games were just as much of a blast as last time.
We started our game night out with a little "Hide-N-Seek" KBro style. The Brothersons headed up this little game we call the Valentine Clothespin Game. Hilarious!!!! The ladies went downstairs while the men were given 6 wooden clothespins. Collectively, the men had to decide where on themselves to connect all six of the clothespins. They chose places like their hair, their sleeve, their pant leg, their neckline and on their backside at the bottom of their shirt. LOL! Then the ladies were lead back into the room BLINDFOLDED! On 3,2,1, Go! Each wife [with our hands behind our backs] had to locate all 6 clothespins and remove them from their hubby! Those not blindfolded- LOVED this game. I can only imagine how funny we all looked. Some pretty good laughs for sure! The Winners? Way to go, Jenny! She was major speedy!
Our 2nd game involved a bit of brain power & poetic ability. LOL! The handwritten Love Notes to their Valentine were so creative and fun I just HAD to put them on the blog. (although much whining occurred with this proposition. All I can say is "suck it up, whiners!" We're preserving history here.) However, with 12 of them- it took up quite a bit of space to write them all down. So, I had to dedicate a separate post in their honor. Check them out HERE!
Another game we played was one involving Ping Pong Balls! Don't ask me where I found them (cuz they have been in my Valentine box for years. lol) but I had these ping pong balls with a cute red heart on them. See!!! "Pack-Rat"ness is helpful in certain circumstances. LOL! We did a couple of rounds of 2 couples each. Winner moved on! The challenge was to roll the ping pong ball 1st- from the wife's left hand to her right had and 2nd- from the hubby's left foot, up his pants leg and down to his right foot WITHOUT dropping it. First couple completing the challenge, won! The only problem was whether or not your spouse thought "speed" or "enjoyment of the journey" was the name of this game. So fun! Tuckers and Larsens had this game down pat! Awesome ping pong rollers, you guys!
Of course, there should always be prizes when games are played. And at this particular Partay, everyone is a Winner! So... although the winners of the games got to choose first, every couple got a prize to take home. Gift bags were full of something edible & something romantically fun to do with your spouse. I have a lot of fun finding things to fill them with. Yeah for prizes.... May the fun continue on your own! ;)
Laughter and lots of P.D.A. !
a couple of the Best things that Couples can do for Valentines!
