We used to be so good about getting together for game night. It was a ritual. Every month we'd get together a for a late night playing games - Boggle, Settlers of Catan, Ticket to Ride, Scattegories, Pit...you name it.
Sadly too much time goes in between our visits now. I miss my old friends from our ward in Provo. They moved from Provo to Mapleton, and we moved from Provo to Pleasant Grove - totally opposite directions.
We have to work a lot harder now to get together. We have to deliberately set time aside. With everyone busy in their own lives, neighborhoods, families, and callings, it's sometimes hard to find a time that works for everyone.
Regardless of how much time falls between our get-togethers though, I always look forward to seeing them. It's like old times when we do get together - and very rarely do we call it quits before 1 a.m. With lots of Diet Pepsi and Dr. Pepper (not to mention endless amounts of candy), we find the energy to stay up later than our ever-getting older bodies thought possible.
