So we've started this tradition of playing games every Sunday night. Our favorite right now is war, only in a bigger scale. Here's how we play:
Everybody gets an equal amount of candy (about 20 pieces) and playing cards.
Then we roll a dice to determine how many pieces of candy everybody has to ante-up. When it is getting late or if we are tired of playing, we roll the dice several times and make the pot bigger.
Then we each turn our card over and the highest card gets the pot.
If two or more cards are the same, then we roll the dice again to make the pot bigger and only those with the same cards ante-up and then turn their cards over.
When all your candy is gone either by consumption or loss then you are out.
The person who wins all the candy wins the war!
This is such a fun game and the kids love it because they can do it and they get to eat candy!
So here are the teams: Brad and Jorja (Jorja didn't want to be on her own team tonight. Her job was to count out the M&Ms when the ante was 3 or less.)
Logan and Special Dog
Jillian, and me on my own team
This is how the game looks:
Logan gets very emotionally involved in these games. Can you tell which hand he won and which he lost? Oh the agony of defeat and the thrill of victory!
