For the past few months I have been attending a monthly game of Bunco! Bunco is a game that I learned of from my Grandma Thomas many years ago and about a year or so ago she sent me my very own Bunco game. Once I moved to Hawaii I found a group of military spouses that wanted to played Bunco and they were nice enough to let me join in the fun!
The game is very simple. It's a dice game where you have three dice and you are rolling for one specific number. There are six rounds and one round you will roll for ones, the next for twos and so on till six. For ever dice you roll and get the number you want you get a point. You are tying to get to 21 first. But if you roll all three dice and they all come up the number you want that's called a "Bunco" and you win that round!
So every month we all get together and play some Bunco! There is usually a five dollar buy in (the host pays for the prizes and that's what our five dollars go to) but this month we all decided on bringing a gift worth about five dollars so we all would win something. Bunco night always turns out to be a ton of fun! These ladies never disappoint. They are all very welcoming and warmhearted women and I am so very glad I found all of them!
Bunco night is a night for all of us to get out of the house and have some fun! Especially when the husbands are away its nice to get some time to relax, have fun and be goofy! All pictures are courtesy of Linda Backer, thank you for letting me use your photos!

After all four games were played we counted up our scores and gave out prizes!
