Settlers
My favorite game of all time is the Settlers of Catan. My mom gave me this game a few years ago, and I can easily say I am addicted. In Boise we had some friends that liked to play it with us, so we played it frequently. However, I am sad to say that my affair with Settler has come to a screeching halt since we moved to Texas. Luckily there's one couple that likes to play it; Joe's cousin Catherine and her husband. Catherine and Matt & family visited us yesterday and stayed to hang out today. We had a wonderful enchilada dinner that Catherine made, and then the kids had a fun time on their tractor rides. A little later in the evening Joe's parents came over for some Father's day dessert, and after everything calmed down we sat down to a game of Settlers. We even played the expansion pack! That is a truly rare treat for me. Matt was the grand winner. Today we had a blast in the pool. I was going to take some pictures, and then totally forgot. Next time I guess.

I love that game too! My husband doesn't really like it, though, bummer.
We love it too. But we haven't had a chance to play recently. Richard's brother's love it, so we used to play with them - but the one brother who remains in the area has a wife who doesn't care for the game. So no Settler's around here. *sigh*
Sound like a fun day with Cat and Matt.
Its sounds like Sunday was Jessica day !
I have never heard of that game, but we are a game loving family (okay so my siblings, not so much my husband!) so we will have to check it out!
It was definitely not "Jessica Day" , because if there were a day like that, I wouldn't spend 3 hours in the kitchen preparing and cleaning up dinner. Also, I wouldn't take care of putting all the kids in bed, and serve lunch to my husband. It was definitely "Father's Day"
those tractor rides look like a blast!!!
We love settlers, too. Our newest addiction is hunters and gatherers: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carcassonne:_Hunters_and_Gatherers
