Game Night

Hanging out today here at AB's house with the kids. I got my butt handed to me in two different games by my 3 year old nephew. First up, a game of Uncle Wiggily. I had the upper hand going into the second half. Dr. Possum's house was right in the cross hairs. All of a sudden....wham! 20 space card.....wham! 12 space card.....wham! another 12 space card! The nephew comes from behind and finishes first leaving us stunned in our tracks. And he wasn't even wearing pants.

Next up...The Wizard of Oz board game. The pantsless phenom was at it again. Every trap avoided. Every bonus won. First to Oz with the rest of us fully clothed competitors duking it out for a distant second.

There's certainly more competitive people in the world than myself and I know that the whole point is spending quality time with family but come on...losing to a 3 year old who can't read...makes me think about retiring from boardgames.

Don't retire, just PLAY NAKED!
