Most nights while on evacucation in Atlanta, the six of us – my sister, her husband, my parents, Carlos and I – played board games after the two kids (3 and 2 years old) went to sleep.
Over the nights, we played Loaded Questions, Taboo, Imaginiff, and Scattergories. All four were great fun.
Some highlights:
- For Taboo, I suggested the three teams be the three couples. (Awww. How cute.) Oh, I came out to my parents about a month ago. More details on that in another post.
The word to get to was “Disease”.
Mom (giving the clues, after quite a bit of time to get to this point): Sick very bad
Dad: Fatal Disease
Mom: Half of that.
Dad: Fatal
Mom: The other half.
Dad: Illness
