Ping Pong Pro

Today Becky hosted a slamming birthday party for Patrick who will be 4 tomorrow (Happy Birthday, Patrick!) and afterwards, we finally squared off for a much anticipated Ping Pong tournament.

I had been trash talking to Katie about how I was going to "crush her like a bug" and "scramble her like an egg." The problem here is that NEVER did she mentioned that she was a Table Tennis Junior World Champion. Um, yeah. As evidenced by the picture below, our reflexes were a little too slow to take Katie down and "crush her like a bug." Notice the ball's position as oppossed to the ping pong paddle's position?


So, after several ill-fated attempts to take her down, I conceded. Katie did, in fact, scramble me like an egg. Props to the ping pong pro.

wooohoooooooo! yeah, baby, yeah! i indeed took y'all down to china town and back again! hehe.:) but, to be fair, y'all had no way of knowing that i grew up with a pong table in my basement and that i was forced as a kid to be down there 8 hours a day practicing my pong. how could you have known that? so, it was good times anyways!

Um, well, we could have known it if you TOLD us!!!!!!

Yeah, well anyway...Katie dominated, but we all had fun! What is UP with that picture Mandy? How did the ball just pass straight through my paddle like that?

That's great! Haha - I think Becky missed that, right. I mean, I'm no ping-pong referee, but...

Go Katie! :)

Katie, you look all kinds of cool in that picture--ready for action! I am looking like a Hollywood bobblehead, not because my body is tiny, but because my hair is HUGE!!!!
