Random Saturday
My younger sister sent me this flowers back in November, and I happened to find this picture when I was going through a pile of stuff on the kitchen counter. The flowers made me so happy at the time that I decided to post them today to bring a smile to my face.
I cooked this for dinner a few nights ago and for some reason, felt inspired to take a picture of it. It's chicken, noodles, broccoli and pesto sauce. Super yummy crowd pleaser.
Finally, one of my older sister's is in town visiting, as are my three nieces. My ten year old niece showed me this awesome game where you get to do knee replacement surgery! Seriously. It was a lot of fun. Check it out when you have a chance. Very entertaining, and I sure learned something.

We took Annie to the creek today by our house. She is soaking wet in this photo and running in the woods, being adventure puppy! Oh, the simple joys of a dog's life.

Do you Blokus?
So, with one son home sick, we've been playing lots of board games. Some of our favorites are Sequence, Scrabble, Monopoly, Sorry and Blokus.
Blokus is an awesome strategy game for all ages. Our youngest son, Remy, starting playing it when he was five years old. The rules take about a minute to explain, very simple and straightforward. The game was invented by a frenchman named Bernard Taritian who is a mathematician and biochemist.
The color blue always goes first...and when my son Donny is the color blue, he always wins! (He wins a lot as other colors also) We have now banned him from being blue. Unfair but true.
Remy saw The Simpsons version of Monopoly at a local Wal-Mart or Target store recently and really wants it. Of course, since then I haven't seen it anywhere, although I'm sure I could find it online.
Other things the sick flu child has been doing when he feels up for it are coloring and watching movies. We print coloring pages off the Internet of his favorite TV show characters.
