after eating some fried turkey and lots of other good foods, we played some games, including a round of "holiday sausages," in which teams take turn asking each other questions to which the questioned must respond, without smiling, "holiday sausages."  example:  me:  "katie, what is your favorite shade of lipstick?"  to which katie responded, "hahahaha."  score one point for the good guys.

we also played our party regular, mafia.  cards are passed out to each person, and three people that hold aces are the mafia, there is one sherriff, and a medic.  while heads are down, the mafia conspire to kill off one townsperson at a time, and at the end of each round, the townspeople try to figure out whodunnit.  they nominate two people that they believe are mafia, and vote on one to axe.  if the townspeople successfully get rid of the mafia before their numbers dwindle, they win.  however, in this case, steve, shannon and i proved to be too much for them and were able to feign innocence well enough to beat them all and mafia prevailed.  muhahaha.
