Horse-opoly

Beth is feeling better today. She has had just a little pain in her right ear still, but has been acting normal with 2 doses of Motrin. After I got all the sheets washed we played a game of Horse-opoly this afternoon (She really wanted this game and got this with her birthday money also). Same group that made Dog-opoly, but obviously this time with horse. I have to say, as silly as this is, Dog is better than Horse. And, why you might ask? It all has to do with the cards that show you own the animal!! I know. It is so silly. I didn't say anything to Beth, but I was thinking that is wasn't as fun and then she said it! It is just because the dogs are "cute" and you see the little thing on your card... well, it is all very silly like I said. I won the game again, but I am trying to teach her how to build up her spaces. By all rights, she really should have won, but she wasn't putting the "bales of hay" on her spaces. I only had one set of horse that I could build on (which of course I did ASAP), but it was enough to win. Jim will be home in a few minutes, so I am going to get a couple more things done before that. Have a good night.

I'm glad she is getting better. It is so frustrating when our kids don't feel well and have pain of any kind. Enjoy the "opoly" games!!

I think it is so wonderful the way you and your family play board games. I loved playing games with my girls when they were growing up. I still love to play board games and wish I had little ones around to play them with me!
