Family Game Night

Jeremiah and I have instituted Family Game Night into our home. Since Wednesday seems to be the only night during the week that we have nothing scheduled, we've picked it for our weekly event. Tonight's game: Candyland.

After four games it was time to call it a night. For the record, Jamie won one of the games and I won the other three! (not that we are keeping score or anything!)

You may ask what Jacob did while we were playing a 4 person game with the girls? We put him to work...

And when he was finished with all his work, we was able to draw for a little before we all wrestled around and then headed for bathtime. Jacob actually didn't mind that he wasn't really apart of playing the game. He was having fun not being bossed around with the toys in the basement!

Is it me or does Jacob look like my brother Josh in this picture? Scary! I can't wait until next week! I'm not sure which game it will be but we will be having fun. Here's to change!
