Last night we were privileged enough to have over for dinner Knut’s Grandma M, Grandma R, and Bestefar. (The kids call him Oldefar.) It might be the first time we had them all over since Grandpa M.’s passing.
As always, we had a blast. I had picked up some yummy bread bowls when we were in town, and I made potato cheese soup.
David was waiting all day to play Uno with all of them. They were more than willing to oblige him. This is just an observation, but I think Grandma M. and David play off of each other’s competitiveness. Grandma M. won the round. Again. David loves that she can always beat him. I’m pretty sure she enjoys beating him too! He wasn’t used to playing with so many people, though, and had to go to bed after this because he got hysterical that he never drew the Draw 4 Wild card. (He’s been known to stack the deck so that he draws all 4 of those wild cards in one hand.) So it wasn’t the most pleasant ending, but I’d say the rest of us had a great time.
