you can never ever leave without leaving a piece of youth

Billy Corgan and the Gentlemens Club

last year my dearest cousin david decided to get a bunch of us girls drunk...and dammnit were we willing...while drinking we decided to play the infamous game of Balderdash - you get a word and have to try and define it, if you dont know the definition you make one up that sounds like it could be the definition, the goal is to sound smart so people will pick your definition - i however never play the proper way...my goal is to come up with the stupidest definitions as to have everyone laugh at me...we named this gathering - Billy Corgan & the Gentlemens Club (b/c i think david looks like billy corgan)

this year we girls we set on having our club meet again...and so the first day of manning was specifically set aside to drink, and drink, and play balderdash...

we started that afternoon with some margiritas...clearly alexis dad had too much and thought he would look cool if he wore my glasses

alexis is wearing a tie while drinking her margerita...and essential if you want to be in the gentalmens club

an afternoon of pre drinking and anticipation of the eve - we let steven and jacob join in even though they aren't girls...

here we are waiting to start...we figured we would get in a few games of balderdash as to prep ourselves for the night ahead...however little cousins took over...and so we abandoned that... ...and i hadn't even started yet...notice the goggles and tie - essentials

david was taking too long so we took things into out own hands...pre drinking some beer with jake and steven...and no steven is NOT of age...

have you ever seen Bob & Doug McKenzie??? if your canadian you better...this is us tring to do our version of the Great White North blowing in bottle song!

ahh...goggles and beer...i labeld mine so now hosers would steal it...

i love the bubbles in this picture

FINALLY...the club is in session...excpet we were missing the majority of the girls...but we gained a few boys...this years drink of choice - orange juice and peach schnapps

ahh david...yea i guess he doesn't look anything like billy corgan...oh well...

the members of this years club...we played poker instead...and 21...and i had to get jacob to count my cards for me

david then got us to all pile into his car so we could listen to Grandaddy...it was rad and we sang...and apparently got a lot of the adults mad at us...i mean it was 1 in the morning...another gentlemens club goes down in history...
