Resurrecting Game Night...


It was our youngest who suggested it...we ought to have a Game Night.

We agreed.

And so we did.

Sunday night is good for us. The whole family (that still lives at home...) is usually around so we decided that the next Sunday night we'd migrate to the basement and break out the games. 

We first tried Sushi Go Party. It's a great game, but something was off. Either the last time we played we understood the rules better or we were playing with someone who understood the rules better. We played a few rounds, then decided to change games.

Poker.

The family game.

Ever since we finished the basement and I built the bumper pool/gaming table and set it up, we've had a lot of good times in the basement playing games. There was a time when we used to get together and play games...my son thought we ought to resurrect it. Playing games is great, but, the games we play are less important than being together...doing something together. Sure, we can watch a movie or a TV program and all be in the same room, but that's just people watching a screen. When we play games, there's no screens, no "news of the world," nothing but the game...

And the unusually bad hands I kept getting.

Family Game Night...Love it!
