Game night turns into 2 game days, June 28 and 29

We had a game night at our house with Danny & Jenny and Kyra & Brad. (Thanks to Jenny for taking a picture of all of us.)

We played Carcassone, and made a nice big square, with Brad getting 6 of the 8 cloisters. And Hand & Foot, which we learned is a variation of Canasta. Brad was getting so frustrated while we were explaining the game, but once we started to play, we had a great time. Brad kept trash talking (sort of) about "Cleaning House" and "Closing up shop" (phrases that were said a minimum of 50 times each). Danny and Jenny finally won after a good two hours. It was so late when we finally got finished that Kyra and Brad slept over...so we had Game Day on Sunday afternoon as well. Kyra and I are the queens of Hand and foot since we pulverized Brad and Mike in 3, yes, three different games. One game we were so far ahead that the boys did not even let us count our points. I call that poor losing.
