skipbo with the jenkins



Saturday night was family game night. Eddie, Kristin and girls, Wendy & her boys, Ray, myself & our kids, and mom & dad were all there. Us adults decided to play skipbo. Mom, dad & Eddie never played before. During the game, Wendy & I couldn't help ourselves to make sure everyone was playing the way they should. Wendy shouting from one end of the table and I was shouting from the other end...

"No! Play the 5!"
"Play the skipbo as a 7!"
"Do have a 10 or skipbo in your hand? Oh darn it, what is in your hand?"
"No! No! No! What are you doing? Play the 2 from your pile!"

So-ok. We did this to everyone. I have no idea what got into us but it ended with Eddie swearing at us and telling us to leave everyone the hell alone so other people can have a chance to win. Guess what our response was...

we all laughed

I liked when we put thirty extra cards in Kristin's stack. Too bad she noticed.

Next time we'll have to cut it down to a nice, subtle, twenty-five or so.
