A Secret Message...
F33l Fr33 t0 C0mm3nt. W3 want t0 h3ar what p30pl3 th1nk ab0ut th15 gam3.Okay, soooooo........Last night Juan and I opened our game of Skip-Bo for the first time. Yes, we received this as a wedding gift about 2 years ago, and somehow neglected it. We have so many other games that we love to play, we just were too lazy to start a game we had never played together before. When I was younger, my family played Skip-Bo a lot, but for some reason, I always was too intimidated to play it when I was older. (I guess the piles and piles of cards seemed too complicated.) Anyway, I played Skip-Bo with some friends while the guys were at the Priesthood Session of Conference, and LOVED it! So, I dug through our closet and pulled out the unopened box of Skip-Bo. Those cards would finally see light! Juan couldn't remember how to play (he had only played it once or twice before,) so I started explaining. Well, knowing me, it took forever to explain and after that, it didn't even make sense, so we just started playing.Juan won.We kept playing and because he let me cheat a little, I won the next round... but that didn't count. We played another round.Juan won again... flagrantly.Maybe the Skip-Bo cards will go back to the caverns of the closet.

So Stacia, I love Skip-bo! I think it's pretty fun. It was my great grandma's favorite game so we'd play it with her a lot. She ALWAYS won! No wonder that's her favorite game. If you want to play an intense version of skip-bo...remember "Nerts?" Emily taught us at BYU-Idaho.
The "Sequence" game that you gave us for Christmas is the fave around here. Every Sunday and lots of Home Evenings as well... I lose about half of the time.
that was actually from juan's parents.
I have never ever played that game. I definitely get it!
I love skip-bo!! We used to play that as a family all the time when we were little! Yay! We'll have to play one of these nights.
I love Skipbo too. I haven't introduced it to Preston yet...maybe I won't I hate losing!
