The Summer Olympics

In the summer of 2008, we had our very own “Summer Olympics.” From Memorial Day to Labor Day, we kept score of every single game we played. Things like mini-golf, scrabble, bowling and lots more all went up on a big scoreboard in our dining room.

The three months of competition were intense. In the end, Ben won the tiebreaker (shuffleboard) to take the tournament. His prize is a plaque that hangs proudly over our couch. We’re now deep in the 2009 Summer Olympics, which will end right after our wedding (races down the aisle perhaps?)

Eventually we’ll have a wall full of these plaques from each summer – hopefully not all will have Ben’s name on them.
