Monday nights have become one of my favorite parts of the week. First of all, Monday is over. What else could you ask for? Second, FHE is always an experience. Since I know you all love hearing about my crazy Family Night experiences, I figure I'll blog it out and tell one or two other amusing stories while I'm at it.
On St. Patricks Day we just played games. This happens quite often in my family. We're a pretty casual group and usually planning is not our strong point. So, we played a name game where everyone writes their name, puts the paper in a hat, and then picks another name. Whatever name you pick is the name you go by for the game. Then, you sit in a circle and try to get 4 team members in 4 specific seats (our goal was the couch). There is one empty seat in the circle and whoever is the the left of the spot calls a name and whoever they call has to get up and go to that seat and that continues until you get your team members in their desired seats. After that, we played Mafia. It was fun. After that, we ate shamrock cookies with green frosting.
Last week we went to our Bishop's house with another group where we ate dinner and then talked and played games. For that party we played "Do You Love Your Neighbor?". It's kind of a knock off of fruit basket upset. I ran into Kenny and still have a huge bruise on my knee from that collision.
Today we are going to be playing "outside games" as Kenny put it, with another family. It will be interesting. It's really cold outside and it snowed yesterday, so we'll see how long we last running around outside.
For today's funny story, I'm giving you a taste of how easily amused college students really are (photographs included):
Once upon a Sunday afternoon, my roommate Anne and I decided to give our other roommate some peace while she did her Visit Teaching and Anne suggested that we go outside and blow bubbles until we get cold. I like bubbles, so I agreed!
