Yes, that was my little tribute to the wonderful New Kids on the Block. I have stayed a faithful fan and am glad they are back. I never questioned whether I loved them even through the times when my sister, Crystal and my cousin, Kurt hung all of my New kids stuff from the ceiling. They even tied my Joey McIntyre barbie up. I know what you are thinking, "what a rude older sister," that is exactly what I am thinking!! I have to admit it, I am still loving them with their new album. Sam makes fun of me, but I love my boy bands for some odd reason. My friend, Adrian is going to their concert and I am a bit jealous.
Anyway...back to the reason for my post.
I could play cards all day long. I never get sick of them. So if anyone ever wants to play some cards, I can make myself available. I better get going, Cribbage awaits me!!
Anyway...back to the reason for my post.
Everyone that knows me well, knows that I love to play games, especially card and board games. My family always plays some card games everytime we get together. On Sundays when we go up to visit Kelly and fam, we manage to fit in a game or 2. I have recently purchased the game Snorta. I was introduced to this game by my friend, Amanda. It is the perfect game to plays when there are kids around and even when they aren't. You each have an animal sound and you have to remember everyone else's through out the game. It gets pretty hilarious and crazy.
I am always forcing Sam to play games with me. Sometimes he wants to play too so I am not always forcing him. My most recent obsession is Cribbage. Sam taught me how to play a couple of weeks ago and I have made him play every night ever since, I am not exaggerating. I think Sam may be regretting teaching me to play. Hey, it is not my fault that he knows how to play so many card games. I have always thought of Cribbage as an old person's game but it is so much fun. It kind of reminds me of Pinochle which is another great game.
My favorite board games are Ticket to Ride and Aggravation. These are 2 games I could play over and over again. I have to say when our friends Marley and Carlos taught us to play Ticket to Ride, we really did play it through the night. I think we played it at least 7 or 8 times and each game takes about an hour.

I've never even heard of Cribbage, you'll have to teach me how to play.
I still like New Kids too Ginger. There is something about certain groups that you just can't let go of. I think I was 14 when I loved them so that's great that they were still around when you were old enough to like them. I haven't heard much from their new album but what I have heard I like.
That's great that you have such a nice husband that he will teach you games and play them too. I can't imagine. I love games too. You'll have to teach us some new card games when you are here at Christmas.
This is Joe, not Jen.
We need to introduce you to David and Tina L. in the ward. They are are fellow game lovers, and we sometimes get together to learn from each other. We'll give you a call next time we put something together, alright?
