Wise Guys & Game Day

It's a hot August afternoon, and we're gathering at Queen Carol L's house for a simple afternoon of playing games.  But before we sit down to play, and to be sure we have enough energy and stamina, we're starting our day with Lunch . . .

Wise Guys Pizzeria
Such a cute place, and great food!
Here we are ready for our lunch -
Anita, Debbie, Queen Carol L, Joy, Carol N, Seema
Lunch was SO GOOD, and plenty of it!  To work off a few calories, we waddled our way down a few doors to visit the . . .

Pet Store
Lots of "homey" items out front
And cute animals inside, like these ducks
And baby chicks.  Awwwww . . . . 
The sisters found a new friend too.
OK ladies, let's get out of here before we all come home with some new mouths to feed.

Back at Carol L's, the ladies were immediately drawn to a new jigsaw puzzle our Queen had just opened . . .

Ohhhh!  A puzzle!  
And a purr-fect one at that!
It took some coaxing, but we finally got everyone settled around the table for some cards . . .

First up . . .

"Skip-Bo"  
Fun and frustrating all at the same time.

Next game - "Hate Your Neighbor"  
Got so caught up in this game, I forgot to take pictures . . .

And we ended our afternoon with a crazy round of "Yahtzee". . .
Carol N explaining strategy to Seema whose playing for the first  time.
Rolling for "2's"?
Shake those dice good!
Guess she did!  How's this for "four of a kind"?  Wow!
And our "newbie" throws a Yahtzee!
Beginner's Luck?  Woo hoo!
Such a fun day!  Thanks Queen Carol L for opening your home to us. 
Thanks Queen Carol L!
L-R:  Joy, Debbie, Carol L, Anita, Seema, Carol N
Hope we can do this again soon!
