Who knew?! Star Wars Monopoly = hours of (relative) peace

Our last word of the month. Peace. Well...it is not ever very peaceful in a house with six children, but there's peaceful and then there is peace. Peace can actually be a little raucous, a little loud, a whole lot of fun.

Which is exactly what was happening during the 5 hour Monopoly marathon going on in my dining room. There were more than a few upper decibel level moments. Even some dirty looks when landing on someone's property-loaded space, but overall, definitely a feeling of peace and joy as I watched my children play and laugh together.
