House of Cards

Hey guys! Sam's back! I'm too much of a scaredy cat for the last two things Becky did, so this update is free of fear and police involvement. Not stress though, there was plenty of stress.

14. Build a house of cards
Our first attempts were failures at best. We had four different decks of cards to try. The first were brand new, unopened panda cards from the National Zoo. Yes, they were mine. No surprise there, note the panda socks.

These cards proved to be quite a hassle. Becky had more luck than I did.

But not for long.

Then we moved on to try the cards that I got in Italy a few years ago. These, although still difficult, proved to be the most successful.


 I found card-house-building to be beneath me (and extremely difficult), and instead decided to make A PANDA FLOWER!


But Becky stayed strong!

 Everything was going so well!
 But then the inevitable happened....
Damn. Life is hard.

 So after watching Becky have some success, I decided to try again, although this time on a much smaller scale.
Again I faced the same hardships that Becky had faced.


Until finally, success!
A whole tower! Base, two levels and a point! It fell shortly after, but at least we have the proof!
By the way, for anyone who thinks building a house of cards isn't that hard (it is) then we challenge you to make your own! Send or post a picture of your best work! But until next time, good luck exploring the infinite abyss.

Love Always,
The Go Getters
