		<description><![CDATA[ Monday night after dinner Preston and I enjoyed a game of Kids of Carcassonne.  It&#8217;s one of the few kid&#8217;s board games for which he can sit &#8220;still&#8221;. A typical game only lasts around 10 minutes, which is just right for him.  He even remembered the name of the figure pieces:  [...]]]></description>

Preston loved &#8220;helping&#8221; me shovel out the driveway (though he used a Swifter as I only have one shovel).  Olivia just cheered us from afar.  Then both got into the BlueBird sled, though only [...]]]></description>

Dylan and I had fun playing the board game, Alhambra tonight.  It&#8217;s basically a tile-laying game where you either lay a tile to build your Alhambra (Spanish/Moorish palace and court), get some money, or buy a building.  Allows for 2-6 players; unlike a lot of other board games, it is very playable with [...]]]></description>

Preston has been a train fan ever since his introduction to Thomas the Steam Engine, and he just loved riding these trains.  They are scale miniatures, but are [...]]]></description>
