On top of the babysitting-movie situation, they also bought us a game called BANANGRAMS. Have you played? We haven't stopped playing since Christmas. The boys love it. Zack doesn't actually play, but he uses the letters to spell simple words and everyone's name in the family. Ben and Luke are getting much better, but they have yet to beat the parents (no, we never go easy on them..) Aaron is die-hard. I seriously can't beat him at anything. Last night, we had a crazy game. It went on forever! and I finally beat him!!!!! I had to take a picture of my winning board. I've named it "infatuation with weiners" Don't tell anyone I spelled wiener wrong. Aaron will take back my win.

During the same game, Luke had a lot of time (and a lot of tiles) to play. I was so proud he came up with such a long word... It's not easy placing a Z and TWO G's! He is such a smarty-pants and such a cutie!

ps. how sad is it that I have a WIENERS label? That's a rhetorical question, btw. Don't answer.








not this cute anymore!

Ha! So I totally had to click on the wiener label (I almost said YOUR wiener label, but that just sounded gross). I'll remember to re-visit that label when I need a laugh. We love Bananagrams, and I totally understand being so excited to finally win Aaron. I have a post back in my history of the first time I FINALLY beat rick in Scrabble (without cheating), photo and all.
We play a similar game called Speed Scrabble- I'd be curious how they compare- and we love it! Those are some l-o-n-g words. Go Janet!
awe this makes me so happy! we thought you guys would love it! yay!
with four boys, how could you not have a wieners label? Luke is so amazingly smart - what did you do to him?
And I loved the previous post with the moving baby. Some day when you're old one of them will let hte truth slip...until then it's quite interesting to guess!
Hope you all had a good Christmas!
This is the funnest game! I gave it to Curtis for Christmas and we beg anyone who comes over to play. And fyi it is the same game as speed scrabble just packaged easier!
