Game On!
After enjoying a lovely Sunday lunch at Simon and Fred's (my brother in law and partner), Louisa decided we should play checkers. However rather than use a traditional game board, she decided that bigger was better. Much more fun to use the checked rug for the board and cocktail umbrellas for the pieces! (you gotta love her style) It was Daddy against Louisa but we all gathered round to watch and give advice when needed. Good old fashioned Sunday afternoon fun!

That's a really fun idea .. I hope those cocktail umbrellas had a chnce to be used as they are meant to be before the checkers game started!
Super layout to go with the story, I am going to do a layout of my story today I think :)
I love your layout and the great idea for a game, genius as my son would say!
What a great LO and what a brilliant idea to play the game on that scale!
You gotta love her style indeed! What an ingenius idea and exactly the sort of thing that becomes a family legend so I love that you have put together such a great layout about it already.
Thanks for joining in today!

I would love to play checkers this way! You did a lovely job on the layout as well :)
Who knew a rug could be turned into a game board. Brilliant idea. Love your layout too. Irene
Ha! How creative! She's reminded me of all the fun my sister and I would have making up games to play on the [very 1970s] carpet in our lounge when we were little!

What an excellent idea! I love how they've made the game pieces to go with the game.
That's a gorgoeus page to go with a fun story.
A lovely page and a great story.
What a clever girl you have to think of using those fun little umbrellas for checkers. And what a clever girl you are to make such a lovely layout to document it!
