Pictures from Thanksgiving part 2

On Saturday, we had thanksgiving with our Great Aunts & UnclesThanking the Lord for His blessings.
Our Aunt with her sons, who are being, silly !
Cutie!
Chit-chatting
Playing "Catch Phrase"We had a fun time playing "Catch Phrase", and we have a really funny story about playing the game. In case you do not know how "Catch Phrase" is played, you have a paper disc which has words on it, and the disc is put in this plastic cd- type- player thing, and it shows a word, and you have to try to explain the word to your team mates without actually saying the word, before the buzzer goes off. For example, pretend the word that you get is "steam". To explain it, you might say "something that rises from a pot of boiling water". Well, it was our couisn's turn to explain the "phrase". He started gesturing as if he were crying. So, we start guessing things like "crying", "cry-baby", "weeping", "sad", and just about every other thing that you would associate crying with. Finally, the buzzer goes off. We give up. Our cousin was so exasperated that we did not guess the word correctly! So, he finally told us the word, "Sobber"! The rest of us looked at each other, "'Is "sobber" really a word?!". Well, the actual word was "SOBER"!! LOL!!! We had a good laugh over that!

Maybe we all should get together and play "Catch Phase" and "Axis and Allies".

I like "Taboo" better. It's basically the same thing, but there's more to it, since there are 10 words on each card that you can't use to get your team to say the word. It's nuts. Meaning, of course, that it's great, especially about 2:00 AM. :)

I agree! Taboo's lots of fun. Then there's also Blurt, where one person reads a defenition and everyone else tries to say the word as fast as they can.
