Pi Day

If you haven't picked up on this yet, I am a nerd. I love math and love themed parties. So what is better than Pi Day? Not much. A themed math party that happens each year that gives you the excuse to eat pie? Pretty Awesome!!

This year was particularly awesome because the date was 3/14/15. For those of you not familiar with the number pi the first 10 digits of pi are 3.141592653...

I had a Pi Party and made some Turkey Pot Pi. Aren't they pretty? I cut the numbers and pi out without any guide and am pleased with how they turned out.

 We also had some pi jello and pi brownies as well. Did I mention I like themed parties? We had lots of round food items because pi comes from circles.

 And I'm nerd enough that I made all my friends count down and toast at Pi second. Which was at 9:26:53.

We had a pie eating contest where 4 brave souls participated, Jon, Nicole, Luis, and myself.

 I quickly learned I am not so good at pie eating contests. But I had never tried it so how was I to know until I tried. Here are some great actions shots of the contest.

Nicole

 Jon assisted by his wife Laura.

 Luis

 I believe Luis was declared the winner though it is still up for debate about whether or not he used his hands.

 All the contestants with their messy or not so messy faces. And photo bomber Josh.

 Here is the crew of attendees at Pi Day minus Amanda who was talking the pictures.

 From left to right: Becky Chapman, Luis Chavez, Laura Frazier, Nicole Myers, Jon Frazier, Jessica Dupaix, Rachel Brady, Peter Shiozawa, Stacy Mouton, Jose Galvez, Josh Hansen, Ali and Shannon.

 Remember these two. This won't be the last time you see them covered in stuff.

 After the Pie Eating Contest we threw pies in each other's faces.

 Jon was our first volunteer. His wife Laura got to through the first pies.

 The plates were light and hard to aim but she got him pretty good after a practice or two. I believe this was the best legitimate through of the evening.

 I love this action shot with the cream flying through the air.

These two covered again.

 Then it was my turn to get pies in the face.-

 Stacy got the first try at hitting me.

 And she missed.

It looks like she is about to get me in this pic.

 But she missed again.

 Ali was next. I love these pictures with the cream flying.

 Shannon getting ready to through at Ali.

 It's snowing.

 Stacy was the last one up for some pie in the face.

 I think she got covered the best of everyone. I love the smile peeking through.

 I think we ended up with more on the ground then anywhere else but it was lots of fun.

I had a super fun Pi Day this year and think everyone else did as well. Or they at least played along. Until next year Pi Day. Thanks for all the nerdy fun!
