Couple Connection Party

There is a couple in our ward named the Loveless' They have a couple connection party each year and last year we weren't able to go because Mike was out of town. This year was a blast and as good as I expected! We had a blast!!!
As our friends in Boise can attest, Mike and I normally suck a newlywed/couples games, despite the fact that we have a happy marriage. We had no hopes of doing well at all...
Everyone brought an appetizer to share and we started out by munching and taking pictures with accessories.

Of course Mike was Batman, but with a mustache to make him extra sexy!


This was everybody!
Then the game began. We were divided into 2 groups and then the couples divided giving the husbands and wives both ask and answer questions. Then the second group did the same thing. The top 2 couple from each group moved on to the LIGHTNING ROUND...





As you can see below, we definitely didn't make it to the next round, in fact we tied for very last with 2 other couples, which ended up being a good thing because there were 3 loser prizes and and 1st and 2nd, so those in the middle got nothin' Our gift was cute, the idea was to help us "connect" better so it was gum, deodorant and shaving cream with a bottle of sparkling cider and it said, "use this" (the gum, deoderant and shaving cream) followed by "then this"


Before we did the final round between the 2 couples we ate dessert, which was made by the hosts. They made homemade cheesecake with strawberry heart swirls on top. IMPRESSIVE and DELICIOUS. It was a sweet night!

The reigning champs from the previous year came with name tags and ended up completely last and 1 of the couples that got last, last year, got first this year.
They also gave a lovebirds CD mix as a party favor. This is something that would be fun to host in the future for sure!
Overall, Mike and I were pleased with our performance. Better than normal anyway...Thanks Loveless' !!!
