Some of my favorite memories from this break are the times spent playing games!Games are a great way to de-stress, have fun, and connect with others. A good game will get you totally immersed in the moment, and that's where the magic happens.
One snowy/rainy night, we broke out a classic Monopoly board at my parents' house and got to competing.
