The Weekend.... was good. 

Friday was a relaxing surprise evening with a dear friend.  Saturday I slept in, spent time with Toni, practiced, exercised, ate bacon, knitted by the fire, you know all the necessary components of a perfect weekend.  Then I drove the long trek to the other sister's house and spent the evening with Kristin & Grant.

 And Sunday, I spent with these three, making board games, baking cookies, and watching a movie.  Gotta love the little "Ruffians."

"LizzieBug" was the only board game that got finished... mostly because Lizze Dee kept asking everyone "Can you help me?" and then commenting "Wow guys, you need to start working on yours, I'm almost finished with mine."  She's quite the little manager; I was cutting black dots, Abby was writing for her and will was helping her place the papers.  No wonder no one else finished theirs. ;) We ended the night by playing the game, turns out she's also quite a little board game creative genius.  It was fun!  And would be easy for little non-readers to catch on to quick (You could even remove the "Get Bugged" cards and they could play it without a reader).  Move over Candyland.

Whoever gets the most black dots on their ladybug before you run out of dots, wins.
