Get Brooked: The PLAID party!
So yesterday we hosted our second "Get Brooked Party" and it was a totally success! We started the evening off by a tournament of croquet. We played three games and then had the winners of each game battle each other to victory. Here are the winners standing on their winning blocks. And It was so awesome to see everyone represent the plaid!
After our croquet tournament we had dinner and begun our second tournament of Spoons. The best part about the game was that we didnt have spoons so we played with forks. The way the game was going we were lucky no one went to the hospital due to a fork puncture.
Here is a picture of one of the groups battling away.
We would also like to introduce our newest member of the Brooke Family. Her name is Jeffrey We named her that because we thought it was funny that she has whiskers! Anyway, she is a runt but has a ridiculous amount courage! i.e. she was jumping off the bed at 6 weeks old (she is only about 8 inches tall!)
We also wanted to give a shout out to:
Victor Sizemore for the Amazing Pinot Grigio
Ahs for the Meritage (merlot+cabernet+petit verdot)
Vu Bui for the Pinot Noir
Lan Bui and his amazing wife Bonny for the truffles
Brian Khang for the Crate and barrel glasses+pitcher

So sad we couldn't make it to the plaid party! Brayden has the cutest paid shorts too! Congrats on your new baby! She is the CUTEST!
Totally sad that I had to miss the party! Looks like it was a blast. Good thing I wasn't there though cause I would've crushed everyone to plaid pulp in croquet. Welcome to Jeffrey!

Looks like fun stuff, you have to ask Vu about the all mightly pork nuckle, don't worry he will know what your talking about.
Looks like it was a lot of fun! I can't believe how quickly you two got everything moved in, unpacked, and ready for a housewarming party! So sad I couldn't make it, but the unbearable heat presented a serious deterrent... Enjoy the new house!
