So Sandra and Eric finally held a big pool party at their new house over the holiday weekend. Luckily, Jason and Amy were able to come up and attend, so Savannah was there too. I haven't had time to add captions and create an interesting post with description or anything yet, so here are just the raw photos.
Well, I got a chance to go meet my new niece briefly this weekend. She kept our hands so busy, we didn't get to take as many pictures as I would have liked. But I have uploaded a few.
Jason promises to have many more online soon. However, I don't think that's going to happen until he gets a full nights sleep in a few months. ;)
One of the great gifts my family received this year for Christmas is a customized game of Monopoly. Now, this is not your city-specific version that you can often find in airport gift shops. No, this is a personally created version -- specialized content printed out on stickers and put onto a normal playing board. Thus, there was an Angela's Avenue property available for me to buy. Plus, one of the Chance card stated that everyone takes a trip to the Robertson theatre, so 'pay Justin and Angie $10 each'. How great is that?
The only difficult part is the fact that Monopoly has been banned from our family for many, many years. This is due to our incessant arguing over when someone can negotiate with someone else and what constitutes a valid negotiation. Well, that's just the tip of the iceberg really.
So we tried to put aside our nit-picking nature and actually played a game together which made us laugh in spite of ourselves. Here's a link so some pictures: Ayersopoly
I got a chance to play on a Nitendo Wii this weekend, since my brother brought his up with him while visiting this weekend. I have to admit, despite the poor graphics quality, the revolutionary remote does make games a lot more interactive and fun to play. Also, it was enjoyable to try and create our own little avatars, called Mii. It's exciting to think about the future of console games that combine this interactivity and advanced graphics. Despite all the laughing, I don't really want to get own of my own because I have enough games and other things that take up more time than I have.
