We meet up monthly and alternate houses each time. The host provides food and some drinks and everyone else comes and enjoys themselves for the evening. This weekend, the tournament was at our house. Since it was snowing, we decided to make some chili. It was delicious! I made a huge pot of it and it was almost all gone! I also made a veggie platter, a cheese and cracker tray and of course put out some chocolate. We played over 6 hours of music on our whole house stereo and had the Olympics on in the background.

We have played about 5 games with this new crew and while I got 4th at the last one, we haven’t walked away with any money yet. Well, last night Britton got second! It was great! It is fun to win every now and then.

We also had a little bit of fun outside with the snow birds (the chickens), Kitty and Schnoodle.  Another great weekend. Plus, we made arrangements for where we will be staying in Puerto Rico as snow birds ourselves in March (staying with a couple of people in a house in Rincon).
