Yet another victory

We met up with the Coopers again for another intense game of spades. It was a hard fought battle. They were sand bagging like crazy but were scoring a lot of points. We were bidding well but not getting good enough hands to rack up the points. We ended up with a score of 415 (boys) to 455 (girls) with one hand to go. (First one to 500 wins). When it got to my turn to bid we knew we had to get 9 tricks, but there were only 8 tricks "out." We took 9 anyway. Whichever team didn't get their tricks was going to lose. We thought we were doomed, but somehow we managed to pull it out being dealt fairly decent hands. The girls were unwilling to pose in dunce hats for a picture. They didn't want another picture on the internet. That's fine, we can make due!!!

We're Back!!

We got back yesterday from our ski trip to Breckenridge, Co. We went with 3 other couples from our Lifegroup. We had a lot of fun as well as a lot of adventures! The day we were driving in, there was a huge snow storm that dumped 14 inches of snow in one day! It hit just as we were getting into town. Little did we know, our house that we had rented was about a mile up in the mountains from the road we were on. Neither of the cars we came in had 4WD, so we got stuck. A nice man stopped to tow both the cars all the way up to our house. Once we made it to the house, we had about an hours worth of shoveling snow, axing ice, and pushing cars to get them in the garage! That was all in the first day! :) Check out the pictures from our trip!

Laura & Lily are in Texas!

Laura came in town on Friday from CT with her sweet baby girl, Lily. Katie & I got to hang out with her and Lily on Saturday! We went to Bennigan's--a favorite from college and then came back and played at our house the rest of the day. We had so much fun laughing and looking at pictures from our 4 years in college together! Isn't it neat to have great friends?!
