Saturday night we all went to see the Beatles at the Hollywood Bowl …. and since everyone was in town anyway, Andrew and I had them all over for lunch on Sunday (plus Andrew’s parents).
Which turned into an all-day-game-and-food-get-together.
Menu:
- watermelon (one of the reasons I love summer)
- tri-tip from Jim’s Fallbrook Market (Andrew bought about 2x too many)
- salad (always always salad)
- lots and lots of drinks (a week later, the only things in our fridge is leftover tri-tip and drinks)
- yummy lemon glazed cake that Julie made
Andrew and I downloaded Tetris for our Wii a few weeks ago ….
There’s a ‘Battle Royale’ mode, so we made everyone play 
…. and duke it out!
My parents had brought over Kevin’s Settlers of Catan game, so we taught the family. The boys all like Risk, and this is similar …
Lucas kicked butt pretty much right away.
Later that night, when everyone else was on their 2nd or 3rd game of Catan, Andrew, Grandma and I watched X-Files via our Wii.
Yes, there was screaming and blood and fun stuff like that, but NO, grandma did NOT need to be rescued. She told us this was one of her favorite shows!
Fun for me and Andrew, since the rest of our guests just amused themselves and we got to do what we would have done anyway if we had had the house to our self (relax and watch X-Files)!
They played late into the night ….. I was exhausted on Monday.
I love having people over to the house, can’t wait until next time
Me too, Andrew! Thanks for having us.
