Pictionary!

So last night we got out an oldie but a goodie: Pictionary!  Bob made us a delicious Prime Rib dinner with scalloped, augratin potatoes and yummy carrots.  It was soooo yummy.  We then had chocolate mousse pie.  I know, you're so full just thinking about our fabulous dinner.  I then made the announcement that we would be playing Pictionary.  I only had two takers, but, as usual, I forced my will on  everyone else.  We had a BLAST!!!

We broke into two teams:  Bob, Alyssa and Delaney and Janie, Katie and Greg.
So first up Katie draws this (above).  She draws the oval thing with a hole and the fuzzy business down at the bottom.  Greg and I are yelling: camp, camping, fire, rock. She then draws the Indian.  We yell Indian, indian camp.  She then makes circles on his feet and points to them. She is emphasizing  the feet.  Bob yells, "curds and whey"  I crack up. We yell, Indian shoes, running, running from the fire, dancing.  Bob yells, glitter.   We never get it.  It is moccasins, ooohh, I see it now.
The next one I drew.  I draw this monkey looking thing, Katie yells monkey, Greg yells ghost monkey! Katie looks at Greg funny, Ghost monkey?  I draw the tree.  Katie says monkey again, I give her the sign that she is on the right trail.  She yells, monkey, gorilla, orangoutang, spider monkey *(at which time, Bob quotes Taladega nights, when the kids are at the table and the little kid says, Don't mess with me old man or I'll come across the table like a spider monkey...), all of a sudden Greg yells:  Chimpanzee. YES!!! That's it!!!  Time goes by, lots of laughter and fun...
So, we come to the end of the game.  It is tied and the last square is: all play.  Whoever gets this, WINS!!  We all lean forward, ready to pounce.  Alyssa begins drawing.  She draws the foot.  We shout: foot, feet, ankle.  Delaney yells umbrella stand, Alyssa looks excited!  We all start yelling things that have to do with umbrellas, then we go back to feet.  She then draws the animal at the top.  We yell dog, she gives us the go further sign, we yell paws, dog feet.  Bob yells, curds and whey, laser pointer!  We are back to feet, ankle, foot, toes...then Bob yells "Barefoot"!  YES, thats it!  What?  What did umbrella have to do with that? Nothing says Alyssa.  Okay, what did the dog have to do with that?  It's not a dog, its a bear, see it's teeth.  OOOHHH!  Bob's team wins.
