Family Holiday Photos (with Food and Games)
1 Comment
Christmas eve at churchWe had a lovely holiday with both our daughter’s home, as well as our older daughter’s boyfriend. In the photos in this post you can see what we ate and what we played.
Among us we got a few new games we enjoyed, which might be great gift ideas for you or yours:
- Wingspan (a complex game about birds)
- Uno Flip (a new fun twist on the Uno card game)
- Quirkle (a color/shape game with tactile tiles)
For food links to recipes, and general commentary, see the captions below the photos.
I hope you had a wonderful holiday with some family, good food, and fun too.
