The Sneedlet Games

As you might recall, yesterday was Sneedlet One's birthday party. The World Sneedlet Foundation decided to incorporate the annual Sneedlet Olympics into the event. Due to homeowner's association rules we were not able to get the permit to construct the Olympic flame. The centerpiece of the olympiad was this very cool Sponge Bob cake that we were able to pick up cheap, because several members of the family of some kid named Noah were incarcerated as a result of a nasty jumping castle incident. (Click on the images to enlarge) The games began with the participants parading in the traditional costumes of their native lands. The Sneedlets pose after the parade in the garb of the Republic of Gilligan's Island. Then it was on to the games. First up, the Sneedlet Cup Soccer Invitational. Soccer play was momentarily halted when a Sneedlet noticed an interesting bug in the grass. The fireman's carry event went poorly. Team Sneedlet was penalized when one of the Sneedlets inexplicably put his fire hat on backwards. Things turned around quickly for team Sneedlet when they scored gold in the two-man see-saw competition. Hopes ran high in the softball heave, but our boys finished a disappointing fourth, just out of medal competition. However, one of the members of the winning team from Slovenia tested positive for gummy bears and may be disqualified. Bronze is still possible for our team. The Sneedlets rebounded nicely, picking up silver in the scooter slalom. The festivities concluded when Sneedlet One was chosen to extinguish the Olympic flame. Then we ate the cake. Yum. Merle Things in this blog represented to be fact, may or may not actually be true. The writer is frequently wrong and sometimes just full of it. Tag:
