Marbles, Games, and The Saran Wrap Incident

Finding ourselves with a free evening and a fun game, we spontaneously invited Justin and Alicia over to play.   Alicia and I beat the boys in the first round of The Marble Game….and I have conveniently forgotten who won the next two rounds.  Good times!. As they were preparing to leave, I took a box containing a large (and heavy) roll of plastic wrap from the bottom cupboard.  As I lifted it, the end of the box gave way and the large (and heavy) roll of plastic wrap shot across the kitchen. It came to rest, suddenly and violently, on the bridge of Lance’s foot.   He howled and ran to the other room. The foot was very swollen, bruised and very, very sore. [We have come to refer to this as The Saran Wrap Incident.]

Lance and I spontaneously showed up at Sandy’s house last Sunday with The Marble Game (we left the roll of plastic at home) and played it with Sandy, Tawny, and several of Sandy’s grandchildren.   Monday we took ourselves to Aunt Linda’s and coerced her into playing the Marble Game with us. Blaine came to visit us this week. Guess what we did? Yep! ...Played The Marble Game.
Tanah and I trounced Miles and Lance one evening in a series of Marble Games. The next weekend they returned the favor.  .  


Come play with us!   We cannot guarantee a trouncing but we can assure you a great time.    And we promise to leave the plastic wrap in the cupboard!


FYI:  The Marble Game is a handcrafted board game made by Stan Nielsen is Willard, UT.   It is a like a game of Sorry on steroids, played in teams (4, 6 or 8 players), and is very addictive.
