The Game of Life

In August, we removed the TV from our living room.  So, we have spent a lot of time playing with toys and games the last few months.  It has been fun and very rewarding to our family.  I have particularly enjoyed the laughter and my boys ability to get along a little better because of all our playtime together.

Because of this change, Santa brought us loads of classic games.  We started with the game of Life.  Boy, there is a game that could have been named more honestly... Life -- YOU WISH!  I ended the game with nearly 2 million dollars.  My 8 year old was a hairstylist with a modest salary and a 600,000 house.  He still ended the game with $500,000.  Even though we didn't really learn anything about real life I do think we managed to add laughter and fellowship to our real family life just sitting around the table together!

Happy New Year!  Enjoy your game of Life this year!
