Among lots of other wonderful things, I got a new game for Christmas: Shear Panic. Now, purely from a gaming perspective it may not be the absolute best game out there, but it has two really strong things going for it:
1. it’s fun to play.
2. it has sheep! 11 sheep figurines, which are lovely and detailed and…did I mention they’re sheep?!?
Santa must know me really well to know that not only do I love all fiber-y things, but I also like to play a good game now and again.
Actually, Santa (and various family members) all decided that Carrie needed a stash of her own games – she has five (5!) new games now. Not all of them are things she’s quite ready for, but I’m sure she’ll grow into them soon enough. Add to that the fact that we bought several games as gifts to others, and there were a whole lot of games exchanged a couple of days ago…
As an aside, I really do plan to post about all the fun stuff I’ve been making for the past several months that I haven’t been able to show off at some point. It’s just a little overwhelming, since I made a lot of gifts. I started in…June? I think next year I may have to start even earlier…
