Family Fun Night


Ted's face on Christmas Day after all the "booger wiping." The picture doesn't do his face justice.

So, Family Fun Night has been going on in Ben's family for over 10 years now. I'm currently trying to figure out what year it started. My best guess is 1995. Anyways, it started as all of Ben's family getting together to eat and play games that everyone could play. We've scooped cotton balls, traded Life Savers with toothpicks, played Boom Wackers, and much, much more. We've recently gravitated towards Bunko and a gift exchange. This year, we missed the Morfords and Kozels in PA. But we set up the webcams to talk.


Grandad and Ted talking to Joanna. Ted was very enthralled by the entire thing. He mainly just sat there and watched with big eyes.



Joanna on the other side of the webcam.


We ate, played Bunko and exchanged gifts. Sophie was not a happy camper. The beginning of the snot/cough stuff she has going on now. She's pretty much cried for two days and prefers to be held - but you must be standing up. Today for about 15 minutes Ben was able to sit down with her. She makes me sad when she cries b/c she has these big tears that get her hair all wet and then it sticks to her face. Ah . . . winter . . .
