Oh how the mighty fall...

New Years Eve was a wonderful night.  Not only is it the anniversary of Fode proposing, this year we won the coveted CHAMP trophy that is passed between our Hand and Foot group.  This is the first time that we have won since the league started.  

Last Night we hosted a league game.  Can you tell we are serious about our Hand and Foot.  We tried, but not hard enough.  We placed 5th (out of 5 teams).  Fode Kissed the trophy goodbye.

Sadly we passed it on the new champions: Laurie and Bill.  Congratulations to them!

Christmas Eve Dinner....a few days late

Tonight I had a yummy Christmas Eve Dinner at my Dad and Jean's house.  Yes, the date is correct, tonight is December 27th.  We had to postpone the dinner because it was still to treacherous to drive up and down the hill we live on Christmas Eve.  Quentin and Xander were in heaven because they got to open many more presents and the got to run around with Taka(?) and Sunny, Dad and Jean's dogs.  On a side note, the other day Quentin was worried about an "All about Me Poster"  that he will get to fill out sometime during his first grade year when he is student of the week.  He was worried about what he could put in the box meant for pets.  See we have eight people in the house so there is no room for a pet.  I sugested that he tell about Taka and Sunny, since they are the closest thing to pets he has.  His eyes lit up, but he said that he would have to ask Ms. O'Looney (his teacher) if that would be ok.  I  assured him that she would think that would be great,  I am sure Dad and Jean too do not mind.  Overall, it was a yummy dinner and a fun time getting everyone together.

Hand and Foot!

Tonight Fode and I played Hand and Foot.  Hand and Foot is really a 'couples game,' but we were desperate for entertainment tonight.  We have not left the house since Friday and that was really the first day we went out since last Sunday!  Fode calls himself 'The Champion.'  To counteract his title I called myself 'The Best'

We usually play Hand and Foot with three other couples.  We even have a trophy for the winner.  We have not won the trophy yet, hopefully someday.  I still can't believe I am old enough to play a couples game! 

As you can see, Zoe  came by to visit; she helped me, then she helped Fode.
