Cards

We taught the kids how to play Spades. I chose that game because Dan use to play it a lot. I figured the kids would like it because they like card games and games with strategy involved.  We have had some rowdy nights of Spades! I hope we can keep playing, not just Spades but other card games. 

Actually last night we played 21, a request of Jack. Instead of playing for money or candy, we played with time. The kids were betting 5 minute increments of time for staying up late for bedtime. ha! It was pretty tense game. Jack got up to 26 minutes, Amelia 5 and Jacob 10. The last hand we decided to do double or nothing! Jacob won with a 20, Amelia busted, and Jack, despite his better judgement to bet, lost it all! It was fun and we will probably do more hands of 21 like that.
