Homey Happenings

At one of our former houses, we had a hill in our backyard that was rather steep. We enjoyed hours and hours of fun sliding down this hill on big pieces of cardboard or on bigwheels. Just within the last few days, the children have discovered that this slope across the driveway from our house is perfect for riding down. Such fun!


Some of these wheeled toys are more challenging than others...

Playing Settlers of Catan



On Sunday afternoons, we sometimes enjoy playing a family game. Today, we played a hearty game of Settlers of Catan: Cities and Knights. This took about 5 1/2 hours, so we need to try and make up some new rules to shorten the game a bit. Otherwise, I think we are finally getting a handle on the expansion rules.
