Favorite Board Game

Tricia and I took a great trip up to Idaho last weekend to visit relatives and meet our new cousin Eric.

What I didn't know was that I would discover a new favorite board game: Blokus.

If you like Tetris, 4-Player chess, and chinese checkers, this is the game for you.

Thanks, Curtis and Karla.

The game.


Family fun for all ages.


One night, after Blockus, Curtis and Tricia teamed up to put together a bookcase for Grandma. They were a great combination of nice, controlled hammering and enthusiastic whacking.


Welcoming the new cousin.

I think Blockus is really fun. My parents have it.

Also, I love the picture of Tricia and Eric, very cute.

I like that Dave is constantly delighted by your camera. :-) And also the way you captured Tricia and Curtis engaged in such different hammering techniques is great.

WE LOVE BLOCKUS!! And--we just happen to own it, so whenever you guys are up for a game...we'd love to have you over to play! Just let us know when you're free!

So have you ever played the version of Blockus that actually uses triangles rather than squares? I can't remember what it is called, but I recently played it. And it was way fun! I hear it is more challenging than Blockus!

I, too, LOVE this game. I got addicted over Christmas at my parents' house and couldn't play it enough. It is awesome! I sure wish we owned it.
