Ransom Notes looks fun! We've concluded that we do better as a family with card games than board games; it's easier for all four of us (when the kids are home) to enjoy something like Timeline or Code Names than to agree on a board game. (There's always one person who doesn't like Clue, or Monopoly, or whatever.) Re journals: I aspire to be a more regular journal-keeper than I am, even if it's just a line or two most days. Does your wife have a favorite kind of notebook? I am endlessly fascinated by people's notebook preferences.
