I WON!!!













I never win ANYTHING! Tonight however, was a different story. It all started out as one of those dog days of summer kind of nights. The four of us had just been hanging out all day, really, and I was pretty bored. After dinner when I couldn't think of anything to do to entertain the kiddos anymore, DB wanted to watch another movie. I saw something on our shelf that would liven up our evening though. I found the Deal or No Deal game. So we threw that into the DVD player instead, and I decided to play like those maniacs on TV do, you know, the cheering and deliberating and everything. At first, JT was quite leery of me and didn't want to have anything to do with me. I picked my case, and went clear to the end, and I WON ONE MILLION DOLLARS!!!! Like I said, I have never won anything, and I won a million! I jumped right off of the couch and was jumping around and dancing and everything to try to get my family a little excited to, and it wore off! (And let me tell you, even just getting off of the couch quickly is a feat for me these days with my bulging belly!)It was fun to give high fives and everything, and JT even warmed up to his lunatic mother. DB ended up winning $250K, and Ben brought up the rear with a whopping $400. Overall, it was a lucrative night for the Shoffs!

um...good job. If I can somewhat recall, you've been the winner of most of the family games we've played back in the day. So I'm not too sure about never winning ANYTHING. You've got glory, I can give you credit for that though. Keep it up!

Sounds like a fun night! Maybe I should buy that game, since lately were pretty bored too.

WWWOOOOHHHHOOOOO!!!! Good job! At first I almost thought that you texted in your answer to the real Deal or No Deal and won that way! ;) But, I guess this is just as good. I can just see your family member looking at you like..."what a nut!". Love ya sis!
