Family Game Night.

First off I would like to tell everyone that Spring Break is here and I am so happy! Well this past weekend I went to my parent's house. To understand my family, and this post, you have to know that both sides of my family are GAMERS! Now I am not talking those fancy video or computer games, I mean old fashioned boardgames, card games, sports, basically anything related to these subjects we play it. We all have our likes and dislikes; and just like a society fads come and go. Such as when I was younger my dad and brothers would play Rail Barron almost every Sunday. Then Settlers of Catan (which, after a while, I refused to play because it caused so much contention in my family) came into the picture and many other boardgames. With the new generation coming up (my nephews and nieces) the simpler games are becoming popular again. Such as this weekend we played several games of what I like to think of as "Uno Championship". You know other families have one game night a week but in my family, whether we are with my mother's family or my father's family, it is more like family game marathon. Seriously, my family will stay up until 5 AM playing games, go to bed and get right back up at 7 AM to deal with kids and getting ready. So when I say we are GAMERS, I truly mean GAMERS. I love my family and they make life super fun and enjoyable.
