Well I thought that I was caught up on my blog, but I'm not. So I think after this I will be caught up for 2009.
My sister Karen is one that got all of the Brother's and Sister's together, and she hosted a New Year's Eve party at her house. Everyone was to bring a treat to share and we were going to hang out and play games and the Wii (which I lOVE to play) Anyway I think the hit of the night was the Game called "What's Yours Like." If you have never played this game it is a blast and it get really funny!! So the game goes like this, One person in the group thinks of a word like "house" and then they write it down and pass it around and everyone sees the word except for the person who has to guess the word. So the Person that guesses that guesses the word asks each person this question: "What's Yours Like?" and the person that is asking that word is trying to guess the word house, but the other person can't say what the word is. So when they ask you the question '"What's Your Like?" then you can answer like this. ''Mine is big and White." they go around and each person in the group what's yours like and they ask that until they get the word right. Well our game was getting pretty funny and it was fun, then it was Deric's turn to pick the word. So he wrote it down and passed it to everyone except for I think it was Bryce who was guessing the word. Anyway They asked each person the question. See if you can guess the word This is what some of us said: "It is Big and White.", "I got it for Christmas." Then the classic was when they got to Travis and he said the Quote of the year!!!! "He said, "Well I was playing with it about a month ago and it almost caust me my Marriage?" Everyone started laughing because they Knew what he was talking about, but it sounded so dang funny! If you don't know the word yet, It was the word Wii Control . I guess you would of had to be in Arizona at thanksgiving to get it. I know some of you that are reading this are utterly confused, but I am going to explain it. :) At thanksgiving time, all of us went to my brother's House in Arizona and one night my brothers and my brother-in-laws were playing the new mario brothers game on the wii, so it was Deric, Dave, Travis and Bryce, if you know all of these guys you know that they have all VERY DIFFERENT personalities. Anyway.... they had four players and four wii remotes and I walked in and saw that that my brother dave was getting a little frustrated because he kept dying in the game and that when he asked everyone to follow him or get him out of the bubble then some of them would help and some of them won't then I saw the Yellow guy trailing a long and not doing so well. I asked who it was and my husband Travis piped up and said that it was him and that I was going to "divorce" him, because he wasn't doing well at the game. HA ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. So anyway that is why he said that awesome quote at the party. I guess if you weren't there, I guess it is one of those situations that you have to be there to be able to get it, but if you are my family reading this and you were there, then you know what I am talking about :P I don't think that I will ever forget that party, it was really fun hanging out with my family and I love it when we get together and have fun and there is no DRAMA! :) Anyway the next Day was NewYears Day and we all went out to Good Wood BBQ for dinner and had a lot fun there too! Thanks Karen for a GREAT PARTY. I will never forget it!!!!
P.S. And there was A LOT of GREAT food!!!
