 Nana & Papa hosted a Back to School breakfast on August 26th They played a lot of fun games  Trying to get the Oreo in their mouth with only their face muscles. It was funny to watch.  Blowing out candles blindfolded  Stomping cups and some had money underneath  The last thing was to feel items and guess what it was.
