Haha ... the Oreo game. So freakin funny!

This is my sister-in-law, Shay. She found this game for me, so she was our lucky one that got to show the kids what they had to do. The object of the game is to stick an opened Oreo to your forehead and use your facial muscles to move it down your face and into your mouth.

And her brother ... ahem, my husband ... apparently thought she was nuts. Well, she is a little nuts, but that is why she and I get along so well! Ha.

And the kids were quite amused by her as well.

Many thanks to everyone for helping us celebrate Nika's birthday ... unfortunately she was largely M.I.A. from the pictures ... she moves fast like that. Ha. 

Actually, she probably was over standing by the food table all night. Home girl lurves her some food.
