Besides hanging out on the beach and enjoying the awesome weather for the week we also spent a lot of time playing various board and card games. Elizabeth Taylor makes a really interesting fellow player. Turns out she's a really risky Euchre player, to the point that BOTD was regretting saying he would be her partner on multiple occasions. She is also quite the character when playing Bananagrams. For those of you who don't know what that is, it's a word game that basically involves each player creating their own Scrabble board out of little tiles. Liz Taylor decided to ditch the general convention of trying to get rid of all your tiles by spelling whatever words possible that weren't proper knows or abbreviations and waited for just the right letters to spell the words she wanted. One particular game she wished to spell numbskull, failing to draw all the letters she needed she spelled out numbscuttle. After that White Tornado did something to tick her off so she spelled out his name and then added is a cottenheadedninnymuggins. Thank you Elf.
One of our favorite car ride games is the alphabet game and on ride Elizabeth Taylor was really struggling to find a particular letter (I can't remember what) and was getting irritated with me and BOTD as we were breezing through the alphabet. After passing several Bojangles restaurants she coined it as her new catch phrase and every time she didn't agree with something she declared that it was "Bojangles." It stuck and she's still declaring Bojangles on people, we'll see how long this lasts and if she can make it a thing.
