Let's Play a Game

We haven't really been hearing from anyone lately. I know that we all are very busy, but I don't want to lose track of each other again.

We have to start planning the next reunion soon (yes, it's almost that time again!). But in the meantime, I thought a little family challenge might be fun.

Please take a few minutes and post four things that have gone on in your life in the past six months. These things can be anything: you got a new job, you have a new grandchild (which, by the way Samantha, we haven't seen any pictures yet...), you bought a new car, you lost/gained weight, you took a trip somewhere, you stayed home and cleaned the house. Whatever you would like to share.

The catch, however, is that only three of the things that you write are going to be true. One the four things should be an outright fib. Yes, a fib. This game will let us see who is the best at fibbing in the family.

The second part of the game, and what makes it fun, is that the rest of us will try to catch you in your fib. Once someone has posted their four things, everyone else needs to add a comment to that post saying what they think is the fib.

So we should have lots of new posts, telling four things (3 truths and a fib) that has happened lately. And each post should have comments, guessing what's true and what's not.

After a suitable time (a couple of weeks), I'll announce the end of the game. That's when everyone will confess the fib by adding a comment to their original post. Once we know the truth/fibs, I'll announce the winners (the best fibber and the person who knows the family the best).

So let the game begin!
