Happy Monday everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and a lovely Valentine’s Day! Today is a special day! Twenty years ago today, my little sister came into the world. I was thirteen. From day one she’s always been my baby, but what’s wonderful about our relationship now is that she’s also one of my very best friends! Hannah is brilliant and an avid gamer! She loves everything from video games to board games to card games, and she’s really flippin’ good at them all!

I still have Put and Take! one of my favorite old games from childhood! I was born in ’59 so I guess I got it in the mid 60’s. Mine is still is great condition, I guess I took really good care of my games!

That’s awesome Lois! I don’t have a lot of vintage games, but my favorite one I do have is an old Columbo detective game 🙂

What in the world do you do with all of these vintage finds? I enjoy looking at these. Forgot some until you showed one on your blog.

I wish I had the moolah to buy them all. I really just only share collections I put together from etsy finds, but sometimes I can’t resist something and buy it for my own collection. My favorite thing is when I get to connect people who read my monday posts with items they fall in love with and buy for their own collections 🙂

I had both the mixies cards & the put & take game. Had tiddlywinks too, just not that exact one.
Simpler times. Thanks for the memories.
