Tonight was poker night at the Sisney home.  And the stakes were high.  Who ever wins gets a free cheat on the diet (a piece of Halloween candy!)…. and the loser must wash bottles!  The game lasted about 2 hours and I must admit… I bluffed my way through quite a few hands!  Near the end, I was up by quite a few chips so I decided to call a rather large bet that Marcus made… and I WON!!!  I took all of his chips and headed for the HUGE bag of candy left over from last Wednesday night.  Sadly, I could not find a piece of candy worth cheating for… but I sure did enjoy watching Marcus get those bottles clean for a night of feeding. 

I really enjoy our poker nights.  We joke and laugh with each other and although it seems like an odd way to connect with ones spouse… It really does it for me.  We normally share a bottle of wine while playing (but we can’t have those extra calories now can we??).  In keeping with the general theme of November thankfulness… Can I just say- I love my husband.   I am blessed beyond words to have him.

  1. You didn’t even eat a little piece. Your strength amazes me.

    You need to teach me how to play poker some day.

    We have been bonding over Yahtzee. For whatever reason it is one game that our competitive personalities don’t rear their ugly heads! (Must be because it isn’t about personal skill, just the luck of the roll!)

    Anyway, poker sounds fun!
