Bean Trading with some Baptists

Kris and Greg invited us over for homemade pizza on Saturday and my wife ignored my misgivings of— "but they're BAPTIST"— so, we went anyway.   Luckily they enjoy playing games, which almost makes up for it.  Their neighbors, who we know from Richwoods, joined us and we played Bohnanza.  We enjoyed our time trading beans, although Kris' win was tainted by allegations of cheating.  Greg makes some great deep dish pizza and promised next time to use some dill in his dough for a Russian twist on an American classic.  The kids always enjoy the trampoline.   Our two Russians enjoyed Benjamins' impressive train set.  Hayes is jealous, but Kris' has a husband who makes dinner, so Hayes' mom is jealous too.   Sorry, dearheart, at least I'm handy...uhhh....or cute...

Jeff, You're an amazing writer. Did you miss your calling??? You should do more of it, maybe even write a book! I mean it. That was a clever post. Sincerely, Aunt Lynn

Nice stink bean picture! haha We enjoyed our time with you but MAN, didn't know you were that hung up about the Baptist thing! ha ha! We loved getting together with you guys, as usual, but need to do it more often, we have such fun! Benjamin misses Hayes! As far as being jealous...I think we both have a lot to be thankful for. :) God is good!

Just joking about the Baptist thing, although I did attend a strict Baptist school growing up and let's just say your leaving a better impression than they did.
