Family Farkle Fun

Friday night, my family got together for dinner and games.
How great is it to spend time with family when it's not a birthday, wedding, funeral, or holiday?
Real great.

We gathered around 7pm at my grandma's house. I brought Lydia...
cause she's basically a part of my family now-a-days anyways.

We had a simple but super delicious dinner.
Then, the game began.

We played Farkle.
You don't know what that is?
Neither did I.
It's basically a dice game and you're trying to rack up points!
There are quite a few variations of scoring, but, you can get the general idea here.



We each put in a dollar to gamble to see who could get to 10,000 points first!
It was a close game at times, but eventually Grandma Betty blew us all out of the water.
The worst part:
EVEN BY THE END OF THE GAME, SHE DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO PLAY.



She never developed a strategy. She was just super lucky in her dice rolling.
Typical grandma move.
Maybe I'm just a little bitter because Lydia and I were going to use the 9 dollars to buy fro-yo.

I came in absolute last.
Oops.

We decided for Christmas we were each gonna pay 6 dollars to pay.
5 for the winner.
1 for the loser.
I'm looking forward to it!

I seriously love spending time with my family. Go ahead. Plan a game night.
Get together with your family.
Laugh together.
You won't regret it.
