Game time.

The homestead in Las Lomitas continues to be a popular place for in the evenings for games and good times. The kids have gone through their phases of favorite games that we’ve either had or have been given to us by family members.

First there was ZINGO!!! (Bottom left in photo,  derivative of Bingo, but much louder). It involves yelling (“yelling” being the operative word here) the name of the thing on a tile that matches the thing on your card.

FANTASMA!  CASA!  ZAPATO!  PEZ!

GHOST! HOUSE! SHOE! FISH!

Then there was UNO! Which, as we all know, involves yelling UNO! when the time comes.

UNO!

UNO!

Then came the dominos (strictly used for construction of towers and dream houses). Which of course, involves yelling when the inevitable earthquake strikes (earthquakes being caused by shaky hands, another child, a cat, a dog, etc…)

AHHHHHHHH!!! MI CASA!!!

Recently, we remembered everyone’s favorite panic attack in a box…. Jenga! This has certainly reached similar levels of fame with the Saturday (or Wednesday, or Thursday, or Monday, or…) night game club. Although since Alida’s usually down for bed by the time we start, the screaming has to be on our insides only. Somehow not being able to yell in Jenga only makes it more stressful. Following are photos of Lomitas Jenga Champions Lencho and Eduardo.

 

The End.
