@Denise Yarborough

You can't kill your own bishop.

Edit:

Some tips since I see you are struggling with the notation, which I understand since it's difficult. You can paste the moves in the PGN section of the analysis board that George Calder linked if you are struggling and can play your next move there, copy from that PGN, and so on. Hope this helps a bit.

Note: Two illegal moves results in an automatic loss. Natasha and Nick have already made one each.

I know that Natasha made two illegal moves but I think that's a bit harsh especially since it's our first game. If we do that after our first game after everyone learned how to use this notation system properly, I think they should just get a point off, not an automatic loss. Sorry for double posting.
