I love Saturday nights. It's the night we usually deem "game night" or "movie night" or sometimes we just end up in the craft room. LOL! I don't know what it is, but I enjoy it. Really... I do. Not sure if it's the getting older factor or perhaps the fact that I just might be addicted to popcorn. I mean, you do NEED to have popcorn on Saturday night. Well... assuming you're at home, that is. If I'm not at home, I guess a boatload of chocolate will suffice. Heehee.
I think by now you've figured out that the newest challenge at These Are A Few of My Favorite Things is your FAVORITE DAY OF THE WEEK. And since we're talking about days of the week, I thought I'd use a sheet from my 8x8 SRM Stickers calendar as a background. I made my own moon by cutting a circle with my circle punch & then I just hand-cut the rest until it looked like it was in a decent crescent shape. (Shocking that I made a moon instead of a sun, eh? Well, it is night-time, you know!) I also snagged a card from our "80's Game" since that's the game we were playing in the photos...
And can I just say that Bob is so NOT amused that I used a photo of him wearing his reading glasses. I said, "Well, that's how you look on game night... that's how you read the questions." He said, "It makes me look old." I said, "Well I know people younger than you that wear reading glasses." He just shook his head. I guess that would kind of stink if I wasn't in control of what photos went into the scrapbook. Can't imagine the flattering photos he might choose of me. LOL!
And speaking of Saturday nights, ours involved the movie Sideways. We've seen it at least 4 or 5 times now, but it's always entertaining. We also watched the movie Death at a Funeral on Friday night. It was pretty funny & had a LOT of laugh out loud moments! Tonight we're going to watch Seven Pounds. I rented it to watch it last night, but since I'm pretty sure it's a major tear-jerker, I put it off until tonight. Going to Zumba with swollen eyes on Monday morning will be so attractive... LOL
I hope you're enjoying your weekend!
How fun to have game night!!! We used to play quite a few games when we lived on our sailboat but Dan isn't really into games so that's been a while! Love your layout (as always). Enjoy the movie - I really enjoyed Sideways and Death at a funeral but I stay away from tear jerkers - I don't need that much video drama in my life. Have a great Sunday!

Tell Bob not to worry, he looks younger than you most of the time (which isn't true, but you can tell him that, lol).

fantastic layout-the background paper is my new fav. Tell Bob at our house ALL the grownups have reading glasses! but I do know how he feels.
sideways is a great movie, have you seen Bottle shock? as a wine lover you will like it!

Great layout! I love the addition of the little clouds and moon. I must be getting older too, because game night sounds like a wonderful way to spend a Saturday night :)

This is probably one of my fav layouts of yours! It is so awesome :)
Game/movie night is a weekly tradition at our house, too. Love the idea to document it.
