(Since someone always asks) I'm not in the picture, because I didn't want to be in the picture. I haven't been feeling great and I looked plain awful. You don't get to see me looking like that.
The game is only set up for 4 players, so we use a penny and a dime as two extra pawns. Daniel and I are a team, and Lydia & Kyle are a team. (They roll the dice for us and they're quite skilled at it.)
Since there are only four game pawns, there are also only four colors of houses. So Kyle and I use legos. See what creativity you gain by being a bigger than average family?Highlights of the game:
- Isaac cried when he was corrected the second time for rolling the die and knocking houses over. (He's a perfectionist just like his daddy.)
- Chloe was completely unaffected all seventeen times she was corrected for playing too slow.
- Maya won "Moply" with a whopping $28
- Lydia serenaded us with the first 6 words of Amazing Grace, over and over again.
- Daniel was quiet as usual, but smiled when anyone looked at him.
- Elena learned, for the first time, the point of Monopoly: ownership. (She's a tightwad like her mommy.)

What fun! Your family looks so fun! I enjoy stopping by and seeing your great pictures and seeing the neat things you all are doing!
The Lord has called me into a 40 day internet fast, so I wanted to communicate that I would be away for a while. I am hosting a giveaway at my place so come on by and read about it and participate! I'll be drawing shortly after my return!
Family Game nights are so much fun!!! Our kids love them!
Sounds fun! :)
Looks like fun! The kids and I love to play games but Jonah hates it! It is very hard to get him to play but he relents sometimes, although not as often as we would like. I always love to see your pictures Ginger!
