I finished the one with a Christmas theme first, but I’m working on a Thanksgiving version as well. (Didn’t quite get it done in time for 2019, but I’ll have it ready next year!)

Note: Like the version above, you can choose to give two points for double letter words like “candy cane” for the letter C.Back in April, we had a surprise party for our Mom’s 60th birthday. If you know our Mother, you know she looks nothing like 60 years old. She looks so young! This is something we girls are all hoping to inherit, lol. ?

A category might be 1) a fruit, 2) a movie title, 3) a favorite vacation spot, etc. ![]() So, I would be quickly trying to think of answers before my time ran out.
