This made me happy.
My girls and their beaus playing Aggravation.
My Grandaddy made this board years and years ago, and I think every member of the extended Collins clan has taken their turn as 'Red', 'Green', 'Blue' or 'Yellow' at some point during their time on Sugar Hill.
My mom says she can remember Nanny, Grandaddy, Papaw Buck and Nanny Jane (Scott's grandparents) playing on this board and sharing a buckets of laughs during the long, cold winter months on the farm. Now, all of these years later, tradition continues as my kiddos belly up to the table and take their colorful turns on the very same board that two sets of their great-grandparents, their grandmother and their mother all cast their die upon.
And that made me happy.
