Who Knew?

Last night our family was invited over to Jenny's house to play games with their family. We eagerly accepted the invitation! Jenny prepared lots of treats & goodies to eat (yay) and we got right to the games. We played Apples to Apples first (remember how much we like this game?) ... there were 9 of us ... SO fun to play with such a big group, several we don't know well at all!!! The 2nd game we played was Guesstures. We had never played before but it was fun. I'm not the best at acting stuff out (it's a fast-paced Charades-type game) but I managed to do ok. It was really fun to see how everyone chose to act ... the adults & the kids. Fun stuff. The last game we played was Whoonu. Haven't heard of it yet? You should definitely give it a try. It's sort of like Apples to Apples but not. You are essentially guessing what you think is someone's favorite thing(s). Sometimes you are right on & sometimes you are way off. Jenny had NO idea how much I enjoyed dog shows. I truly do LOVE dog shows. I don't like dogs in real life (woof, woof ... SCARY) but I love them on T.V. lol Go figure. Either way we had lots of fun & learned a lot about each other.

Friends & Apples

Remember when we played "Apples to Apples" for the first time? Of course you do, it was only a few days ago ... ha ... anyway, remember when I mentioned how much fun it would be to play with another family? Of course you do ... ha ... so I emailed Sharon & Gord and suggested we have a game night. They accepted the 'challenge' and we played on New Year's Eve. Oh my goodness we had a lot of fun. There were 8 of playing for the first few rounds & then just 6 of us (Callie & Emily went upstairs) playing for the final couple of rounds. To say it was interesting is putting it mildly. We definitely had some disagreements about the choices made but it was all in good fun. I know it's something we need to do again ... soon!

Here's my attempt at a group shot of us playing. You can barely see Callie to my left & somehow Emily didn't even make it in the picture (sorry Emily). I absolutely LOVE the look on T's face though ... hahahaha
