Game Night

We recently moved into a small apartment. When we did, game night was cancelled indefinitely. We just thought there was no way it would be fun in a small crowded environment. We sold our couches, so there wouldn't even be places for people to sit.
Two weeks ago some of my family members came to visit me at work and begged for game night to be back on. With a heavy heart I told them there was no way. We are just too uncomfortable here. But I've missed my friends and my family. We decided to have a trial night. We crammed around the table and played games. We ended by 11 PM. Anyone who has been to game night before knows this means utter failure. If people leave before the cock crows something is amiss.
We tried it again this week.
Shame on us, but game night was over at 11 again.
We suck.
We started to wonder if there would ever be redemption for our long held tradition.
On Saturday, Sydney and Felicia came up to watch Adam's soccer game. They stayed all day and into the night. You would think by night time they would be tired of us. Yet, the party raged on. Brock, Whitney, Bryan, and Clayton and Melanie all joined us. We sat around the family room without couches. We sat on tables, floors, and kitchen chairs. No one minded. No one complained. The house didn't empty till after 2 AM.
We had so much fun with our family. I think that's the best part of it too. Every person that comes is family, in some way. Felicia is definitely my sister, which makes Bryan the slightly strange in-law. Mel is married in and since Brock is dating Sydney he has a temporary pass. We got to feeling good. We even took turns saying things we loved about each other. Isn't that sweet? Doesn't it bring a tear to your eye? It almost did to mine. We all know I'm a cry baby though. Anyway, the point is....
Game night is back!!!!
