Guys Night Out
My church life group had guys and gals night out last night. It was without a doubt, a lot of fun. We stayed at the Mowrey's parent's house out in Bourne. Mowrey's own a 6k sqft house on top of the hill that looks over pretty much everything. The house is decked out and one could only dream of house sitting for a week. I love the house but I don't think that I could live there. Too much house for Steph and I, even if we have 2 kids! Anyways, Mr. Mowrey is really cool and down to earth guy which is awesome considering most of the people that I've met whom have such a house are arrogant jerks.
Moving on, there was a total of eleven guys including myself. We played Texas No Hold'em and basketball into the wee hours of the morning. In fact the only reason that I'm writing this at 7:22 AM is because I couldn't sleep for four hours. We played a round of poker with no betting to show the new guys and I must admit, it's weird playing with 11 people. After the first round we all bought in for $5 bucks. I got second place loosing with an 8 high strait to a 9 high strait! At least I got $10 bucks for second place. The next round we played I got spanked and broke even for the night. When we move in next week I will be investing in poker chips. It was a lot of fun and we'll definitely have to do it again.
We played b-ball outside where I found a whole new meaning to "don't judge a book by its cover". Kevin is nice guy who is in his early to mid thirties. He's about 5"10' and weighs about a buck fifty. He just had his first kid about 9 months ago and is probably one of the nicest people you'll ever meet. I'll be honest, my first impression of him was; nice guy, feel sorry for him if he's ever in a fight because he doesn't stand a chance. Anyhow, Kevin is to quote one of the guys, "A black man trapped in white man's body". Kevin schooled, no owned, no embarrassed everyone out there on the court. He made Kobe Bryant look like a rookie! This guy was driving the lane like no one was there, made all of his outside shots, and just kicked our tails.
All in all guys night out was a blast. I'm looking forward to the next but first I have to move into my house. We'll be closing on the 9th of December and moving in on the 10th!
