Stormy Day Fun

December 15th here in Oakville brought us over 25 cms of snow. The roads were snow covered and the traffic was practically zero. Theresa and I were being treated to a visit from our grand daughter Shawna Lynn from Ottawa so we invited the other grand children over for a game of Monopoly.

We own a deluxe game of Monopoly given to us as a Xmas gift but we never used it. It was over fifty years since I played the game but I remember the fun we used to have. We set the time for 10am and the players all showed up ready for some fun. We elected Lyndsay  as banker and she did a great job of explaining the rules as we forgot most of them.

As the game progressed the real fun began as people met the reality of losing their assets. We decided on playing four hours with a break for pizza. The time flew by and we closed the game on time. It was hardly over when we planned to get together for a games  night over the Xmas holidays.

We had a great time and as we departed everyone realized how much we missed. We plan to correct this by having games day often in the future.
