Raiders Bigger & Better

Tonight Emma went to Raiders at Briarwood. This is the get together for the 7th and 8th grade guys and girls. The theme tonight was Bigger & Better, we play this for Emma's b'day parties and have a blast.
The Crowd: Cooper Pinson giving the rules to everyone


Groups were formed and a paperclip given to each and we set out on our way.


We drove around neighborhoods for 1 hour trading our paperclip for anything bigger and better that people might want to part with. Raiders has done this for many years and I'm still amazed that people living around Briarwood answer their doors!! We received many small items and finally hit on one big one when we went to Beth Hendrix house. I know her from the nursery. She gave us a huge outdoor umbrella that barely fit in the borrowed minivan I was driving. We also received several cans of soda, a basket, a bag, and a santa. Here is some of the loot that was brought back from all the different groups.

A chest of drawers


A lawnmower


Several bikes of all sizes


A miniscooter


Chairs


A TV, pictures, Kobe poster, basketball goal


An Armoire


A stuffed Bobcat


And a bathroom sink


there were many other smaller items that can't be listed. Fun was had by all!!
