healthy competition???

After this week, I've discovered an extreme competitiveness between Alaina and Cory in regards to MONOPOLY! We played TWO games during Alaina's stay! Neither of them were very pretty! The first night we started playing and finally postponed the game at midnight... Cory had to take pictures of the board from every angle and record the number of bills, properties, etc. he possesed. We resumed the game the next day... Alaina and I joined forces against Cory. However, he likes to be "nice" and make deals - which in turn drags the game on endlessly and makes everyone miserable! Finally, we forfeited. As a result - yes, CORY WON! Thankfully, the monopoly game has been put away - hopefully for a good long while!
