I have been to Battle Hill Brewing Company a few times, as I lived so close by. However, Dann had never been there, so when we were looking for a place for a late lunch, I thought he would find some of the food interesting.

Kai had also asked to attend, so we decided to take him on the Sunday, as Dann and I always tend to go two days to get everything done.
[Ad – Gifted Products] Robin is such a huge fan of SpongeBob SquarePants, so when we saw SpongeBob SquarePants Labyrinth, we wanted to play it. We’ve previously played Pokemon Labyrinth, so we all sort of knew how the game was played. Labyrinth is a classic board game type, often finding different IPs to change out the characters, cards, and layouts on the board. SpongeBob SquarePants Labyrinth was absolutely perfect for Robin!
