making time for "Memory"

Its a rarity that we have the entire tribe home with us on the weekends but that's what we have today... a full house. Its Pickle's weekend to be here with us and my x declined getting our two so its been a madhouse times seven. Which hasn't been too bad and made grocery shopping very interesting to say the least. But since its not an every weekend thing, we just made the best of it. All of us. Together.

The kids all got gift cards from my aunt for Christmas so combined that with their Christmas money from other relatives and we had children demanding to spend, spend, SPEND! We didn't find anything yet for PorkChop but SweetPea picked out a new board game... Memory. Hubby was a bit unsure if she was ready for it even though she tackled Candyland with no trouble. Boy was he in for a shock!

Not only is she more than ready for the game, but she went undefeated in three matches tonight!And that was without us not trying. She just proved that she has the memory of an elephant! She is a little bit unsure of waiting turns when she knows where the match is but I figure that that will come with time. What I am not sure about is how many family members are going to be willing to play with her now that she is the reigning board game queen!
