Happy Thanksgiving from Aspen Village!

To celebrate, we decided to dedicate a whole night to pie.

 

First, there was the pie eating contest..

 

The challenge: Eat a whole pie without the use of your hands.

The competition was fierce, but in the end there was a clear winner:

What’s more fun than eating a pie?

Throwing a pie in someones face.

We had three gracious volunteers for the task:

 

While the pie throwing was going on, our pie baking contest was being judged.

 

After much deliberation, the judges decided to award the $30 gift certificate to the pecan pie.

Finally, after all the fun and games, we served up pumpkin, cherry, and apple pie for everyone while they relaxed with a movie.

We cooked,

Every semester Aspen Village pulls out all the stops and cooks up a mean pancake breakfast for the students and their friends.  This semester was an awesome turn out as everyone enjoyed the beautiful weather, watched the movie Rio, got to know their neighbors, and stuffed their faces with as many pancakes as possible.
