Overalls, straw hats, and red handkerchiefs were appropriate attire for our trip down the Mighty Mississippi river.
Recreation included a unique "Eat the doughnut (and/or Peep) off the string" game which resulted in dirty faces and and lots of laughs!
Grace was to the tune of Zip-a-dee-doo-dah from Disney's Song of the South:
Zip-a-dee-doo-dah, Zip-a-dee-ay
Thank you, God, for our blessings today.
Help us to serve and love you, we pray.
Zip-a-dee-doo-dah, Zip-a-dee-ay!
The menu consisted of fried catfish, hushpuppies, coleslaw, fruit salad, and miles and miles of Mississippi Mud cake.
Thanks to the cooks was to the tune of
Row, Row, Row your boat.
Thank, Thank, Than the cooks,
Thank them like I said.
They work real hard to make real sure
Our bodies and souls are fed.
Family activity included charting the course of the Mighty Missisippi (naming all the states bordering on the east and west of the river) followed by an ad lib where each word had to start with an M-I-S-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I.
