So we had our first ever bout last night.  It was only for a few of our family members, but we got to play!  Everyone was excited, everyone was nervous.  We were split into teams so large that it would have given anyone who knows Derby a pause, and we were split from our friends.  It was strange having an us and a them.  I would see someone from the other team make a clever move and it made me want to cheer!  Even though she was on the other team.  I am sure someone else will give you the full rundown of the game if you ask (and be careful who you ask or you could be stuck for an hour hearing about every play!) but for me that not what I'm left thinking about.
