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!
