Let the Games Begin!

Games are a big part of Christmas celebrations when you have a herd of youngin's. This year, when names were drawn, Collin got Jayden, and found a fun, fast-paced card game for him. At least I think it was Collin...maybe it was Lee...anyway, the game is called Big Fish Lil Fish and is totally wild, just what a Wright family game night is all about!
As you might suspect, the idea is that big fish eat little fish. The action is along the lines of Slap Jack - no turns, just full out action, get your fish on the pile-up. But be careful - they are colored and numbered and if you get out of sequence, you get the whole pond full! And then there's puffer fish...hey, if you want to know all the rules, go get your own!!


















Collin got hooked in, when he heard all the fun and laughter coming from the kitchen - he started telling Jayden what to play next, then asked just what the rules were! Collin's comment: "I don't know if I was helping him, or giving him bad advice!" Yeah, Collin.





























Carrie is the biggest gamer of them all, she gets a charge out winning - even over her own spawn. Poor little guys.















But Lee hangs right in there, and wins by a fish tail!






Then they talked Gramma into playing. Took two hands to even get a fish card on the pond pile. I told ya - it's FAST!!
