Another Saturday morning gaming session with my mother (AKA Grandma) and 7 year old daughter (AKA Maddie).
Our first game of the morning was Cartagena.  Maddie set up the board and I went first.  I was green, Grandma was yellow and Maddie was red.  Grandma won with 6 pirates in the boat, I came 2nd with 2 (on tie break) and Maddie came 3rd with 2.
Maddie chose our second game of the morning.  Jenga is a fun dexterity game that we play occasionally.  We managed to get the tower up to level 24 before Grandma sent it crashing to the ground.  As I was the last player to successfully place a piece, I won.
Maddie chose our next game, For Sale.  Maddie usually does quite well at this game.  However, today I was the one who best managed the bidding to my gain.  Final scores were me, Wayne 1st with $76K, Grandma 2nd on $67K (on tie break) and Maddie 3rd also on $67K.
Our final game of the morning, Pick Picknic, was also chosen by Maddie.  This is a great little game which children can play quite well with adults.  I won with 67 points, Maddie came 2nd with 54 and Grandma came 3rd with 27 points.
