The fam likes to play Saboteur and (I like to play Sleeping Queens - which really is a kiddy game, but you can play in 10 minutes and sometimes that's all I have time for)

The boy and girl enjoy Munchkin and we have almost every Munchkin deck going ... except we haven't gone rushing out to get the Marvel or the Space one ... but the Pathfinder one is pretty cool and we have the Cthulhu one as well.

Recently a favourite is King of Tokyo. Which is pretty cool and is easy with the rules.

When I was at Uni all the rage was Trivial Pursuit ... nowadays it's Cards Against Humanities with the children. It's funny, the girl's friends usually won't let me play CAH because they think that it's too rude for me. ^_~

But yes we've played Sushi Go as well. And if all else fails ... there's always good ol' Uno and Monopoly to fall back on. (We actually have Star Wars Risk, which we eventually took out of the box ahahahaha! But it seems that only hubby and the boy have patience for it.

Hubby got Space Cadets last year, and it's actually fun, but for me a little confusing.

Munchkin is a nice game, but it wears off after repeated playthroughs. King of Tokyo is pretty fun! Remember Ryan got the 'friend to children' card and we were laughing about it for ages?

Aww dear, maybe they think its awkward to play with someone they consider their mum?

And you finally took Star Wars Risk out of the box! Congrats!

We really need to meetup dear! I miss you!

Nicholas Ryan, the one who games with your hubby. Very tall, half Chinese guy, doesn't wear glasses. We played King of Tokyo at the JE house, the men drank whiskey and both of us drank sherry.

*hugs* dear. I'll see you at the steamboat for Ebi right?

Haha, we used to call him Nick, but Aloy's brother is also called Nicky, so I've gotten used to calling him Ryan now.

*loves you too* and see you at the steamboat?
