Okay, so I have almost all of the Christmas gifts put away, but had to stop and take a picture of our stack of new games. ALL these games arrived under our tree this year! Yep, every single one of them.
It's kind of ironic that before Christmas I was lamenting about our collection of games. Everything we had in the cupboard seemed either too easy or too complicated or seemed to get the "do we have to play that again?" response. So the elves did they're best to update our collection and boy, did they do a good job! We received some classics like Monopoly, Clue, Battleship and Twister (Owen's new favourite game!) and some co-operative games made by Family Pastimes (www.familypastimes.com) -- the concepts of which I am hoping will carry over into everyday life -- I can hope right?
I am now looking forward to many winter days curled up by the fire playing any number of games with any opponent that I can find. Game of Snorta, anyone? Thanks to all our Christmas elves!
The boys playing Snowstorm, one of the cooperative games, and -- surprise, surprise -- they're cooperating!
