Playing Games with the Folks!

Shay and I love to play games.  It was something we did a lot while dating.  

Here you can see my parents and Shay sitting around the game table. 

We are playing Settlers of Catan, a family favorite.  

If you've never played it we'd highly recommend ti!


Celebrating St. Patrick's Day With Family

I love to host parties!  

I enjoy coming up with ways to decorate the table for a yummy meal:
 
Since it is March and a time to celebrate St. Patrick's Day I decided to use the traditional two colors that represent the two main religions in Ireland (Green and Orange).

We purchased green place settings and added a alphabet code that helps one figure out their Leprechaun name:

When everything was made.....we had broccoli and cauliflower soup (since it is green), green salad, green soda, and my mom brought green jello....my brother, his children, and my parents came over to eat!

Shay and I LOVE spending time with our family!  We had a blast visiting and eating our St. Patrick's Day meal!
