Halloween Bunco Fun

Several of the girls in my neighborhood and I have been playing Bunco for over a year now. And this October 19, was MY night to host. So, we decided to have a little Halloween fun!

I dressed up in pirate garb, and for decorations, I used black tablecloths and Halloween-themed napkins, cups and plates. For our snacks, I made brain goo salad, putrid punch, monster fingers, mini mummies and eyeballs! (AKA known as: strawberry pretzel salad, citrus punch, cheese sticks, pigs in a blanket and chocolate covered Oreos.)




Sean LOVED the eyeballs! :)


My neighbor, Season, came dressed as a hippie -- complete with armpit hair! EEEewwww! And Cathryn sported a crazy fun witch's hat!



We played several rounds of the fast-paced, dice-rolling game, while munching on all the ghoulish goodies! But in the end, Brandi won for "most Buncos."

Christy and Cara tied (and shared) for "most wins."


And our fearless leader, Paige, did not leave empty handed... she took the title of "most losses.

I love my Bunco girls! :)

We're on a roll!

Tuesday, September 1, marked the very first night for Bunco in my neighborhood.
Our group, which included a few Bunco veterans and mostly "newbies," met up at my house for a lively evening of food, conversation, competition and prizes!
After learning the rules, making a few trial runs and working out all the specifics, there were three very active tables of cheers and chatter along with some fancy dice-rolling techniques and many excited exclamations of "Bunco!"

Winners for the night were Brandi, with the most wins, Krystal, with the most losses (yes, there is a prize for that!), and ME, with the most Buncos. (I never win anything! Ha-ha!) Other participants included Amy, Cara, Cathryn, Debbie, Jill, Nancy, Paige, Season and Tina. Everyone ended the night with some great memories... but we three lucky ladies (pictured, below) also had a little extra spending money to take home!
