OK, so Saturday night we had Adam's sister and her family over to play games. We love to play games but unfortunately it seems as though we always play the SAME games. Please if any of you have any suggestions for some fun games please let me know. We are desperate! Anyways about Saturday night, Adam decides that we are going to play Cranium. Not one of my favorites but it can be fun- Matthew and I end up being a team and I thought "Great, we are so going to win. Matthew will know all the word stuff and trivia and I can draw, know my songs and my celebrities. No problem, this win is in the bag!" OK, well that was my first problem I started off too confident. Can I tell you that I absolutely STINK at this game. Matthew came through for us on alot of the trivia stuff except for the ones we missed because I insisted it was another answer. (I should keep my mouth shut and have more faith in Matthew's knowledge) The worse was when Matthew pulled a humdinger card that is where you have to hum or whistle a song and your team needs to guess what song it is. OK no problem I know my songs, this will be a cinch. So Matthew starts humming and right away I go "Oh Yeah that's "Up on the Housetop". Matthew shakes his head no. I listen even more attentively....nope that is "Up on the Housetop" or at least that is all that I can hear. Adam's sister tells Matthew that he should hum the chorus for me because then for sure I would know it because by this time everyone else has it figured out. Our time is almost up and I just cannot get it. The other teams are feeling sorry for me because I am obviously so stupid that they even give me a hint by telling me who sings it, the Beach Boys. Still nothing- I felt like a complete idiot! So to say the least we were in last place the whole night and I don't think that Matthew ever wants to be my partner again, even though he is so sweet and would never tell me that. The song by the way that I swore was "Up on the Housetop" was actually "Good Vibrations". Duh! Next time we are playing a different game-

Lisa and I have played a game called 'Ticket to Ride' it is a board game that we think is really fun. Maybe you guys should buy it and we will come visit you and play..
Is that what it will take for you to come down and visit us? OK we will buy it!
HEHEHEHE, we'll be there. OR, we will borrow it and you can come here. Maybe that will get you here, LOL. There are 4 different ones I think but we've played the US one, there's a Europe and others. It's $50 though so Adam may not want to buy it, LOL
Oh, you know Adam so well!
