Hi all,
Yay!
Another celebration of Andrew's birthday on a completely
random date since he likely predated any calendar including whatever
the raptors and triceratops might have used. ;-)
I
hope you enjoy the festivities! This year I mostly went for
games cause I get the feeling a lil lighthearted distraction might be
nice!
God
bless,
Jenni

Hi
there, Andrew,
So now is this the big 4 O O O O O O
O O? ;) Rose told me to ask.
Regardless of how truly ancient you may be, I wanted to let you know
that I really appreciate you. I'm glad we've become
friends. You make me feel young since the upper 80s is nothing
compared to your age. Except when you whoop me at pool.
It's been fun... humbling but fun.
Sincerely,
Mick

Andrew's Birthday Memory
Tray Game!
(or whatever it's called)
This
is definitely a game we used to play at birthday parties when I was a
little
girl. Unfortunately, it doesn't translate really well
online. You're gonna have to be on the honor system!
Usually how this is done is the host puts a bunch of items on a
tray. The participants then get, say, sixty seconds to look at
the tray. The tray is then covered and whomever can recall the
most items wins! I can imagine the Dyelanders enjoying
this. So if you wanna get a feel for what they might be up to,
click the link below. Look at the photos for 60 seconds then X
out
of the screen. Jot down what items you remember. If you're
curious to see how you rank, email me what you got and I'll post the
results over on the JABB Scoreboard which has been woefully abandoned
for years! Same goes for all these games.
Andrew's
Birthday Word Game!
"Hey,
ain't it nifty? Andrew's turning a bazillion and fifty!"
That
number, of course, is not accurate but shouldn't affect the outcome of
the game. ;-)
Andrew's Birthday Pictionary!
Finally,
who doesn't love playing Charades at a birthday party?
Unfortunately, that's virtually possible to translate online although,
again, I'm sure the Dyelanders would be enjoying just such a game
today. I'm very jealous of them... So, instead, you can
play another game that was a party staple back in the day. Below
I've drawn (rather horribly) depictions of stuff related to
Andrew. See if you can guess them! And now you should all
know why I write JABBs typically and do NOT draw them. ;-)
Well,
that's all! I hope ya had fun! Answers will be added on or
before Thursday September 24th so check back!
Happy Birthday, Andrew!!!
