A Very Sweet Valentine's Day

On Friday night, our Sunday school class had a Valentine's party, and the entertainment was "The Newlywed Game"...complete with our very own Wink Martindale "wanna-be" host. Here's the sad part. There were so many of us at the party that we couldn't all be on the panel. So they gave us a qualifying test to start with. The couples with the most matches got to participate in the game. OK, so the average number of matches was around 5 or 6, but some couples were getting 8 or 9 out of 10 right! Of course they were the ones who got to play in the first round. Then for the second round, they decided to let the couples with the least matches play, and just guess who was in that bracket?!? YEP--Ryan and I matched exactly TWO questions (one of which, we had to BEG for them to count right), so we got to play in the losers panel. We'll blame it on not living together half the time. It was hilarious though! We actually wound up matching 4 out of 5 once we were on the panel, so I guess we redeemed ourselves.

Sounds like you guys had a fun and romantic valentine date! I remember those days in my distant past. This year ours consisted of Chili's to go and a fussy sick baby:)! We did watch "No Reservations" on DVD though!!! Haha. Sounds like your party was a blast as well.

so i don't know if you got it from friends or not.....but when I see your title I think of Janice singing "funny Valentine" to Chandler on the tape of songs she made him that Chandler gives to Monica! :~)

how EXCITING... in every aspect your Valentine's was! especially 35mpg and BOTH of your smiling faces looking at the camera! Seems you've always been a bit of a risker. No wonder you married one of similar tastes ;)
