Two Player Board Games

Hey!  It's Leslie talking about Board Games today!

I love board games. My husband and I have always loved to play and when we were first married we would have game nights with friends. We've since had children and with my husbands work schedule we don't have game nights as often as we'd like so we've found some great two player games that we can play even when we just have a bit of time. We love it because if we only have half an hour it's fun to play and I feel like we get to talk and hang out more than we do when we watch a show. 

I have to give a shout out to my husband here because he always reads the instructions since that's just not my thing- he knows the way to my heart!

I love games that have a good balance of strategy and luck. The following games are pretty simple to learn and to play and don't take a lot of time.

So here are a few of my favorite two player games. They are so fun!!
