Every year the Carother’s family goes to visit their friends the Hess family. This year, seeing as I’ve married into the Carother’s family, I was brought along for an evening of conversation, food and adventure.
On our way to the Hess House we stopped and took some pictures around Fort Point and the Golden Gate Bridge, we also took Winston for a walk.
Once at the Hess’ we took a walk and Joan pointed out where Dulce used to live, and we saw where Jonathan and Tim went to high school. After that we had appetizers, a veggie tray with dip, and cheeses, followed by stew and salad.
After dinner the fun really started: every year Dulce creates a “new fun game” to play after dinner, this year it was Carothers Conversation Cards.
Dulce had made up dozens of cards with “conversation topics” on them, we went around the table and each picked one randomly, we could answer the question ourselves, or pass the question on to someone else. The questions frequently caused more laughter than conversation.
Some of the questions were unique, some of the questions made people blush, and some of the questions were just plain odd. Some of the highlights included:
They are going to make a movie of your life, who would you want to play you? I asked Gavin that and he quickly replied “Hugh Jackman.” Then I asked who would play me… and he said “You would play you.”
If someone was to describe you as a car, what make and model would you be? Stephen answered “A Rambler.”
What would you like to be healed of? and If you were President of the United States, what changes would you make?
It made for quite an evening.
Merry Christmas.
