The 2013 holiday season is almost gone and for me it was a highly successful celebration.I define a successful holiday season as one in which my family is together and has time to enjoy our favorite pursuits including plenty of good food, a couple of great movies and LOTS of board games from our game collection.
This year was wonderful!
Our youngest son, now 20, returned home from university for a couple of weeks. Having him around the house is always fun.
We were thrilled to squeeze in a number of visits with our oldest son, who lives nearby in Ottawa, when he was between shifts.
We took a 24-hour trip to Amherst Island to visit my brother-in-law, his wife and their four children.
We had my sister-in-law visit for a number of days.
And yes, we have had plenty of delicious meals, including family favorites like the sloppy joes and the cranberry coffee cake and we even tried a few new recipes from Pinterest, too.
We finally saw Catching Fire at the movie theatre.
But most importantly, we played a number of both new and favorite board games. This year that list included Smallworld, Outburst, Trivial Pursuit Young Players' Edition, Settlers of Catan and even Yahtzee.
Because games play an important part in our family's tradition, I often look for new, used and vintage board games to sell in my eBay store. You can see all of the new, used and vintage board and card games available in my eBay store by clicking right here. Wherever we have played the game, I have added a personal note to the description of the game.
How about you? How were your holidays? Did you play any board games?
