Family Game Night with my nephews

My 11 yr. old nephews decided to spend the night tonight and to pass time, we decided on family game night. Oh my, I haven't laughed that hard in a really long time! I had tears in my eyes!!

First, was an intense game of Uno to start the night. Once Uncle Chad joined us, the boys wanted to try the game Taboo. Taboo is where you have a "guess" word with 5 "taboo" words under it. You need to try to get your teammate to guess the "guess" word without saying any of the "taboo" words. The boys were really getting into it. And towards the end, they were coming up with some really crazy stuff. For example, one of the "guess" words they had was "fudge". Trevor kept saying "it's something you eat and you can get it at SEARS". Chad and I were stumped!!! Finally, Trevor says, "OH, I MEAN YOU CAN GET IT AT SCHEELS"!! LOL!!! Of course Chad wouldn't let them live that one down - "I've never once had a piece of fudge in SEARS". About two words later, the "guess" word was "crabgrass". Tyler started out saying it's a "vegetable". WHAT?!? :-)

At this point we are all laughing so hard!! Well, the next clues we got from the boys were "rash" "it causes a rash" "it's GREEN" "Bears do it"....WHAT?!? Oh yeah, the word we were supposed to guess was "poison ivy". HAHAHAHAHA!!! Of course then Chad says, "oh yes, the bear that does poison ivy while eating fudge in Sears"!! The boys are laughing so hard and rolling around on the floor it was pointless to even finish the game. Chad and I thought it was pretty hysterical ourselves!

Now the boys have moved on to Backgammon. I'm hoping one of them wants me to play. I love Backgammon!
