Happy Friday

Our oldest and her family recently attended a family party and this game was played, even our grandsons-ages 9 and 7 enjoyed it.  We decided, being big game players, to go ahead and purchase this for the family game times. Last evening we went to dinner at some friends and they had purchased it for us on Amazon along with one for their family; we were able to play about three games before it was time to head home.
It is a wonderful game for ages 6 and up and even those who love strategic games such as Settler*s of Catan will enjoy this(I never got into that particular game).
My week has flown by and today seems no different; I've got to bake a Banana Bread Cake for a memorial service  tomorrow and then this afternoon I hope to spend some time with our oldest and her gang.
Our weekend seems pretty open at this point but one never knows.
Have a wonderful weekend~Noreen

    I love hearing about new games. I think the 80 something family members could even see that game to play....of course my dad and his color blindness ALWAYS makes us giggle a lot when it comes to color games. Hope your weekend is grand.

    You're right on the never knowing whether our weekends are free or not! Every. Single. Time I posted on my blog that I had a free weekend ahead of me ended up being jam-packed with stuff to do (usually involving the Ts, so I NEVER, EVER complained!!).

    Regardless, hope your weekend is a good one ... and enjoy the afternoon with your daughter.

    That looks like a fun game. Our 7 year old Kayla likes to play games with adults so I think this would be perfect. I bet our 6 year old Emma would like it too.

    Have a good weekend!

    I love family game nights! I haven't heard of this game and I am with you in that I never could get into settlers of cataan either. We have recently gotten Quelf and oh my! It is a hoot! I also am loving Just Dance 2 on the WII.

    Enjoy your weekend my dear friend! Love you!

    That looks like a game Josiah would really enjoy playing. With his Birthday coming up in June. Sounds like the perfect gift.

    Hi Noreen, it's been a while since I could stop by. . .school keeps me away from the blog-o-sphere, and I sure do miss visiting. Just wanted to pop in and say "howdy" and thanks for the recommendation for a new fun game. :)
    Big hugs!
