Aludan at Thyros and Valletta's BBQ on Thursday evening. They were nice enough to host us at their house, cook a veritable feast with all the BBQ fixin's and entertain us into the wee hours of the night!
Sorva and Trebligtz at the BBQ
Jared (Tensor and Sorcha's son) and Cynthia (Jareth and Cat's daughter) playing together at the BBQ

Icelady - the weather was hot hot HOT, especially for our Canadian brethren unused to such extremities.
Aislinn matching up some numbers on little pieces of paper that I *think* had something to do with the poker tournament

Zorbaine in action during Articulate (it's a fish, name a fish...)
It
Pheonyx articulating
Targ was pretty fantastic at the descriptive portion of Articulate... the guessing portion was kinda hit and miss, though (What's 3x3?! Lincoln as the first president of the US?) *wink*nudge*
Targ articulating
Jareth articulating
Zosma articulating - him and I got a record of nine during one round! We rock!
More Zosma articulating

Last ones standing! Nine of us made it to the final poker tournament table. Six of us made it into this picture - Bonecrusher, Elektra, Azazel, Trent, Molly, Eriond, Maria (Eriond's girlfriend who wasnt playing).
The beginning of the end of the poker tournament
Eriond at the poker tournament - I think he's doing some sort of neck crack to get ready for the orchestrated beat down ahead. Intimidate his fellow poker players, as it were.
Eriond - glasses and all. Bring it on!
Tensor - look at that pile of dough! No wonder he's happy. ;) Darrkin's wife Kim in the background.
Poker tournament - Eriond as adept dealer. His fingers started to cramp, so he passed off the duty to...
Darrkin dealing
Aislinn in a practice game for the upcoming Euchre tournament
Trebligz, in the practice game
Riekl, in the practice game
Sorva, in the practice game
Tensor plotting the demise of Eriond. I, sadly, was eliminated the round prior. Number three aint too shabby!
Poker Champion, Eriond!
And again. (Where are the hot chicks in bikini's and the beer plugs? Something to shoot for next year...)
Eliminated early from the poker tournament, a gaggle of mudders decided to play beer pong. Zion and Targ land a pong in beer. Woo.
Trent watches in trepidation as pongs from the other team land in beer he has to drink.
It, Dreamer and William
And now it's payback for Trent and his team.
Jodo
Jodo - no idea what he's doin' but he looks good while doin' it!

Decado - how did my pingpong ball get up there? Lil too much beer already? ;)
Azazel beer ponging
Zosma

Valr tackle humping It! Bad picture, but funny idea. It had Valr in a head lock and apparently couldn't do anything but sit there and try to hump... Next year. ;)
