THE GIFT OF A FAMILY GAME NIGHT

Last week we received a package in the mail from my friend Sonja. She had sent us the makings for a family game night, so we reserved tonight for having some fun together.

First we made up some berry flavored water via Propel packets that Sonja sent. Then we popped some microwave popcorn she sent. Scarfing & chugging began immediately. So did our typical nonsense.

Next it was back to Naomi's room for a rousing game of Snorta, a game we'd never even heard of until it arrived at our doorstep. So fun!

Naomi hasn't mastered her animal sounds yet because she's the third child and her mom has far more on her plate now than when she only had one or two kids and hasn't practiced animal sounds with Naomi enough. How's that for a run-on sentence?
.
Anyway, this is one of the cards in the game.

She knows it's a pig. However, she is convinced, despite lots of clarification, that a pig says "pink, pink". Ummmm .... nope.
.
Here's another card in the deck. Guess what she says when she sees this one?

Chuck E. Cheese!!

Big thanks to Sonja for a great family game night!! Feel free to move back and play with us.

Hey, she might not know what sound a pig makes, but she's got the scarfing down. Looks like a fun night at the W household.
