Freeman Party Teaser

The Freeman Party is a week away. It has taken me a lot of years, 8 to be exact, to get this party to a point where I think I finally have it right. I think it is a safe assumption to say that what makes this party a success are the games. So going into this year's party, I thought I would recap the notable past winners in the more popular and staple events of the party.

The Water Balloon Toss
2003 Phil Foti and Jake Burac (Tom Brady)
2006 Kim Burac and Jake Burac (Tom Brady)
2007 Dawn Magnuson and The General
2009 Julie Davies and Brian Eggener

Kids Musical Chairs
2004 Nicholas Davies (Pickle)
2006 Zachary Davies
2007 Lindsey Coonen (Boomer)
2009 Lindsey Coonen (Boomer)

Female Musical Chairs
2004 Vanessa Bahr (Pookie)
2006 Jodi Davies
2007 Lisa Nordstrom (Liquid)
2009 Suzanne Achtner

Male Musical Chairs
2002 Jim (Tree) Havlik
2003 Jay (Jota) Kempen
2004 Justus (Melon) Klink
2006 Jay (Jota) Kempen
2007 Justin Sherman
2009 Jon Davies

And what has become my favorite event of the party, the Rock, Paper, Scissors Tournament
2009 Tim Coonen

The weather forecast for the event calls for a 30% chance of showers and a high temp of 71 degrees. That isn't 86 and sunny but much better than the 46 degrees we endured last year.

Lyric of the Day:
Oh no no no no, Baby something's wrong.
Oh no no no no, That old time fire is gone.
It's not so much the things you say, love.
It what you don't say that I am afraid of.
