Nikki and I hosted our first 70’s themed Newlywed Game on Friday evening. It was a great success and lots of fun. I must say that the only thing more surprising than the costumes were some of the revelations that we came to that evening. For instance:

– Bob showed us that Home Depot is an excellent source of menswear accessories, as well as some seriously insightful arguments on the benefits of controlling the laundry at home.
– Wilson didn’t completely fulfill predictions by taking home a mighty bruise from one or both of Lockrey’s fists.
– Julie and Rob’s strategy of default answers failed miserably, but somehow they managed to take home the goodies anyway. Maybe the lesson to take away is to just have a strategy, even if it’s a terrible one.
– Nikki rocked the party with the smokin-est hair this side of Funkytown.

Honourable mentions: MC’s absolutely-nailed-it outfit that brought everyone back to grade school, Lockrey’s um… uniboob, and Lisa’s outfit that clearly started life as a circus tent.

And finally the best part, we have pictures, oh yes, they are coming. Public humiliation for all….
