Family game nights are awesome. Mattel Game On wants to bring back family game night and has launched some fantastic ways you can start celebrate family game night even if you have never played a game before! Anyone can play games. They are so much fun and there is a game for everyone.

Mattel Game On asked me to try out their new Gameology App on Facebook to see what type of games I liked and to host a game night with our family. I absolutely love family game night so I couldn’t wait to start planning. I started by trying the Gameology app on Facebook and my profile was Wittian:

There needed to be a place to find clothes that actually fit. Clothes that came in fun colors and looked fabulous. Clothes that were so incredibly comfortable that you could dance in them, run in them, sleep in them, or flip in them.” I think these ladies have exceeded their goal. The clothes at Triple Flip are colourful, fun, fit wonderfully and are excellent quality.

It’s amazing to me that it has already been a year since I created my blog and published my first post ever online: Hello World!

I have learned so much during the last year and met so many amazing people online! I really didn’t have any goals when I started blogging, other than to find a way to share my ideas and experiences, with friends and family. I had no idea how big the world of blogging really was, or that I would love it so much!
