Inconceivable! A Princess Bride Party!

Inconceivable! There could be no such thing as a Princess Bride Party!  But, it happened. Inconceivable!

What Princess Bride Party would be complete without chocolate covered miracle pills (courtesy of Joel.  Delicious enough to revive any mostly dead person!) and Iocane Juice? (aka, water. Or was it water?  Who knows, maybe I've been building up an immunity to Iocane powder.....)

Or fabulous decorations full of quotations and scenes from the movie (courtesy of Michelle)? The decorations were so much fun that we decided to keep them up.  Now, our apartment (on the 3rd floor) is on the top of the Cliffs of Insanity, the fridge is the Fire Swamp, and oh so much more.

Mawage is what bwings us togeder today

Inconceivable!

The Pit of Despair

I'm not a witch, I'm your wife!

Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya.  You killed my father, prepare to die.

Anybody want a peanut?

The Impressive Clergyman

Or games based off of the movie? Our first game was "Stop rhyming and I mean it!"  We were in a circle and took turns rhyming.  The first person would say a sentence ending in a rhyming word (so, no orange or anything like that).  The sentences would continue around the circle until someone repeated a rhyme or couldn't come up with another one.  That person was out and it continued around the circle until only the ultimate Fezzik was left.

The top 2 contenders

Our ultimate Fezzik.

Our other game was a battle of wits.  But, don't worry, it wasn't a battle to the death--just for bragging rights.  For this game, I had a list of 10 riddles and the two teams competed to see who could answer the most of them correctly. 

Team #1: The girls + Joel

Team #2: The brothers (not with each other, but my brother and Michelle's brother)

The winning team!  

And of course, we finished the night by watching the movie.  If you haven't seen it, it is definitely a must!  For those of you who have, just remember......

Have fun storming da castle!
