So after the vigorous hike in the snow we settled down for some serious game time.
The first game of choice for the evening was Balderdash, which I had played once and stunk at. So I admit I was not really looking forward to it.
You make up definitions for real usually-unheard-of-words, and then vote on who's sounds like the right definition.
Dahlene and I kinda dominated this one!
Something else she dominates at? Making these delicious cookies.
There was a lot of this going on!
While we played our games, the boys were livin' it up in the hot tub.
40-50 degrees outside, but the water was a balmy 102. They were lovin' it.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Sean was kicking our butts at Qwirkle--a different game we'd never played before. He ended up just barely losing to the master, Jayden, but it was a fun game.
Right?
Ya can't win them all, hon. :)
Later, Dahlene fattened us up with huge tacos, more cookies and then a huge waffle breakfast in the morning!! We sure didn't suffer for good eats this trip!
Thanks so much to Matt and Dahlene for a fun quick visit. We had a really good time and picked up right where we left off 5 1/2 years ago when they moved away.
Next up: Cousin Time!

Oh so much fun, what a great trip!
Sounds like your spring break was a bit similiar to ours - time in the snow and lots of family games! Love times like that.
i love game nights and this post reminds me that it is time to plan one soon! the cookies look so soft and yummy.
That was a great game night. I wish you could have stayed longer. Those cookies do look good. I may have to make some more soon!
how fun. I want to play with Dahlene!
I just caught up with your trip. It sounded like fun and the views were amazing. It's great that you got to take a "real" trip (someone how visiting parents is just different. Wonderful and fun, just different.
