SPT- Do you play well with others?



I hope so, because I love to play! and I use the term play very loosely. Playing is any activity where I'm having a good time and am surrounded by people I enjoy. Playing is summer afternoons by the pool or an evening with the girls. Playing is a date with my husband or a long walk with Kate. Playing is a trip to the library with Cooper, feeding the ducks at the pond or dancing in the family room as my boys compare their new moves. Playing is also an entire week each summer in McCall. For some reason, in that place I can feel like I'm playing all week no matter the current activity.



To answer this week's question, I do think I play well with others. Sometimes I'm picky about who I spend my time with, but I always play well. I'm really good at not working, therefore I must be good at it's antithisis, right? I really look forward to spending time with my friends and I really look forward to being with my family. I'm always up for a party, it doesn't have to be fancy, just give me good conversation, make me think or laugh and throw in some treats. I'm a happy girl. This photo is a couple of months old, Amy, pictured in the middle now has a beautiful little boy. These are a few of the people I enjoy playing with.







I'm a lucky girl to have so many fabulous playmates!

I love the statement "I'm really good at not working, so I must be good at it's antithesis". Definitely had me laughing and saying "me too"!

Just by your pictures, I can tell you play well. I'm with you, as long as there is good conversation, I think it is easy to have a good time.

Don't you think you get more excuses to play without feeling guilty as a mother?

doesn't 'playing' take on a new meaning the older we get? i never thought i would have so much fun playing with the three foot and under crowd; although, i still love a good date night and/or night out with the girls!

Amberly, I stumbled across your blog via the Jennejohns blog. Glad to hear you're having fun playing with your little guy in AZ. I can't believe how big he's gotten!! I remember when you were pregnant with him. Time flies! Glad to run into you in the blogging sphere.

Hi! I found your blog through Amy S! I am also in Phoenix. Maybe the three of us could hook up with our boys and my two girls with tag along!
