Cheaters Never Prosper

The other night me and the older two hooligans played a couple of rounds of Candy Land. (It's really sad that I keep wanting to call it "Candy Crush".) The big headed goofball pictured below was not allowed to play, but he made up for it by playing tricks on everyone and snatching game pieces. He's kind of a terrorist.

I had to give the kiddos several different lessons on cheating. These two will win or take all around them down trying. Oh, I am supposed to move one orange space? Who will notice if I actually move TWO orange spaces. Hmmm. I don't think so, kiddo.

Merrick's favorite game playing tactics are taunting and then throwing a humongous whining fit in the floor if he happens to lose. It's almost as bad as the hysterical fit he throws when he wins.

Don't be fooled by their smiling faces. They are out for blood. They will steal your turn if you don't watch it. They will also steal your sanity if you attempt to play a calm family board game.

This is the part where Jericho decided he needed to accent the board with a blue crayon. He's a thoughtful sort of guy you know.

All jokes aside...these jokers are fun to play with. Their tactics may need some work, but they at least can't be accused of not keeping it interesting.
