July Bunco

Jessica hosted a fun wedding themed Bunco this month. We all wore old bridesmaid dresses, ate some appetizers (including a small carving station), drank some champagne and topped it all off with wedding cake.

the lovely cake...way to go Jessica!!

dye to match shoes...why not?!
Brooke brought out a bridesmaid dress her mom not only wore but made...gotta fit something over the baby bump!!
group photo, check out the lovely dresses!!
Sara's dress was not from a wedding, but one she actually picked and chose to wear to a formal
the Bunco boquet
which Clare took away about 10 seconds later
Brooke came out the big winner of the night, quite the turnaround from last month's big loser!

June Bunco

Concert in the Gardens
Sara hosted Bunco at her place because the Indigo Girls were playing in the Botanic Gardens that night. She went with an all salad (any kind you could think of) theme which was lots of fun.

Brooke and Laurie...ready for some Indigo Girls and dice!

The Botanic Gardens...and concert crew...luckily they faced our way the whole time so we could hear them easily.
The skyline was so cool as the sun started to go down!
Brea had a killer Bunco night...her first!! Although her Bunco paper did fly away so we don't have a true audit of her wins and losses! :)
Julie with a Bunco headband
Brooke went 10 rounds before winning!

Clare pointing out her puffy cheeks from her surgery

Laurie with the self shot showing the concert in the background
Teresa with the headband and Sara (who we have YET to capture in a full photo) getting into the side of the pic!
Brea came out the big winner with most wins, most buncos, and the last bunco prize (an Indigo Girls cd)!! Brooke pulled up the rear with a CRAZY amount of losses!

May Bunco

Dessert Bunco
Brooke and Brea hosted a dessert themed Bunco this month...can't go wrong with that!

The Bunco Babes
the spread...well part of it!
And to celebrate Cinco de Mayo there was the Bunco brero...which you wore when you got a Bunco. Here is Clare pointing out the lovely camera bag of Brooke's and take a look at how excited Julie is in the background! :)
Brero Bunco Laurie
Brea pissed Jessica is kicking butt...and this is only after Jessica's third Bunco! (She would go on to roll 6!!!)
Brero Brooke (with baby)
Brero Julie
Cody won the last Bunco Brero prize...some dessert plates.
Jessica, who spent most of the night in the sombrero, clearly won most buncos with SIX!!
On the flip side Caroline handedly took the loser prize with 13!!

April Bunco

Italian Night
Sara and Emily were wonderful hostesses this month with a fun Italian theme.

Even the tableclothes made us feel like we were in an Italian Restaurant!

(Julie, Brooke, Kate and Sara the host)
Emily won the first 9 games in a row and didn't move from this spot!
And since I forgot the Bunco box we had Bunco Arnold...too bad he didn't still talk!
My camera died so I don't have pics of the winners and losers...but I can tell you I walked away with the loser prize which included some girlie pasta and a beef stick! Ha!!

March Bunco

St. Patty's Bunco

Laurie hosted Bunco this month and the theme as you will see is St. Patty's Bunco...

complete with green beer...VERY green beer...thank you Emily!
and some Irish soda bread thanks to Caroline
We decided to go with the bunco headband instead of the bear...I think it will stick around! Here is just ONE picture of Cody wearing the headband as she had it on ALL NIGHT LONG with 5 buncos!
Bunco Clare
Bunco Brea
Emily and Clare with the green beer Emily made...favorite part of this pic is that Emily looks about 2 feet shorter than Clare!

cheers!
The "Russell" gals
Brea, Clare and Caroline (all sporting their green attire)
Brooke had the last Bunco AND most wins...so it was a big night for her as she has not won in over a YEAR! Last Bunco prize- Lucky Charms and Pot of Gold lotto tickets
And finally...Kate pulling up the rear with most losses which with the way we play is better than "even steven" because you get a prize! :)

February Bunco

MARDI GRAS BUNCO

Julie hosted the Mardi Gras themed Bunco in February. As host she made Jumbalaya which was sooooooo good and apparently quite the process!

We threw some dice...had some wine, lots of laughs, and fun as always!

Here are a few pics:

A WHOLE new meaning given to the "bunco bear"!!!

Bunco Bear prize and Loser prize! (Teresa & Brooke)

This group of Bunco gals started with some college friends and has grown from there to include friends of friends of friends! We meet the first Monday of each month to play the high skilled, fast paced game of BUNCO!!

Bunco Roster pics are added as players get Buncos...we'll try to get everyone on soon!
