Annual Scavenger Hunt

Well, I''m finally getting this event blogged, only 18 days after it actually occurred! LOL!

Every year for the past 6 or 7 years I have created a scavenger hunt for the kids around the house. They look up Bible verses and a word in the verse will lead them to the next clue.



After a total of 10 clues, they are led to a pumpkin filled with candy. We've had a blast doing it over the years.

This year, for the first time, Landon wrote the clues. Here he is helping me hide them.



He hid one of the clues in Chase's playhouse which is in the playroom, a room above our garage.



Carys wanted in on the action. So she carried the Bible around.



Some of the clues are harder than others. This is Gerren's exasperated face!



Greg can't believe that they can't figure out a very simple clue!



Finally, success! Chase gives the thumbs up after looking at the candy. Good job, Mom and Landon.
