Charades
Last night Ben and I played Cranium with Morgan, Robin, Rian and Ryan. It was super fun.

You Sherwoods have an ability to laugh at yourselves which is quite admirable.

Twice, now, when I was in a certain state of mind, Courtney has gotten me to laugh, unable to stop for minutes on end.
The first time was at the party my mom threw on the Friday before our wedding, at her house, and I was listening to Courtney give directions to several different people. This was funny because she #1 gets lost a lot, and #2 says the wrong word a lot when trying to describe physical things, i.e., says north when she means south, west when she means east. So what she was going to say next was really unpredictable. And I was in a certain state of mind... it started hurting after a while.
But Courtney doing silent charades for "Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde" was right up there. She said later that what she was trying to do when I started laughing was to mime the concept of 'evil,' which looked to me like a mischievous bunny. It didn't help her attempt at 'evil' that she was wearing a white and purple summer dress. Then she tried to mime "Hyde" by hiding behind the couch and peeking out from behind it.

I really loved the charades part of that game, even though I'm not sure if anybody ever successfully guessed what I was trying to mime. It was just so fun.
