  • Least Reciprocated friendship: Maia and Mister Bo
  • Big Kid Award: Four way tie (Steven, Grandma, Grandpa, me)
  • Least observant person: Steven. For a laugh (and, yes, I am hilarious) I moved the car twice while Steven was inside a shop and he never noticed. Or at least he never said anything, probably so as not to encourage me.
