Last night around midnight I drove into town to go to Walmart. It is only a few miles from our little island. Frequent Walmart trips are one of those family traditions we have while on vacation. This particular trip I was on a mission to buy new board games since our old ones needed replacing. I bought quite a few, and the lady behind me in the check-out line asked me if I was a school teacher. I said, “Well, yes, but only to my children. We are a homeschooling family.” She paused in her response. I could see that she was processing what I had said, so she just smiled at me politely with the head tilt. I’m not really sure what her opinion was of me.
So, anyway, besides beach time we played lots of games today: Monopoly, Clue, UNO, Phase 10, Trouble, Sorry, Bingo, and some Angry Birds game. No one in our family likes to lose, so there’s quite a competitive environment once the games begin.
