{Board Game Night}

Last night we played board games at the local game shop while hubby was playing war board games with some of the guys from his meet up group. I had fun playing with the kids and watching the other gamers play too. Sam was fascinated by the war games and watched all the guys play and conquer.

I played "candyland", "jenga" and of course "hungry hippos" with the kids and I even was able to snap a few pictures from the last thirty minuets of the night. The kids had fun and so did I, despite a few meltdowns over who was winning, stealing their marbles or MJ crying because she was either hungry, needing changed or just plain tired. It was still nice to get out and enjoy being around adults (even if I couldn't participate like I wanted to with them).

(What are you lookin' at?)

(Sam watching the "war" games happen)

(intense strategy going on here)




(the makings of another fight over the "black" marble)

(but it was resolved, sorta)







(Sam was mad I made him sit down so I could get a snap of all of them together)



(notice how Ruth & MJ are looking at ME but Sam & Aaron are looking at the GAME?)

(not sure if William was having a heated discussion of just ready to sneeze...lol)



(strategy is the key to winning or intense starring - still not sure)
