"The Fine Five!"
We started a new thing a while back called the "Family Fun Jar". We had a FHE where all of us wrote down fun things we would like to do as a family. We had two stipulations: it had to be something closeby (because I knew the girls would write "go camping") and it had to cost little or no money (because I knew Roman would say, "Go to Disneyland!") Each family home evening we take turns picking one paper from the family fun jar and that is our activity that we do the following Saturday. Last Monday Leah drew Hali's idea to go to Berg Park and ride bikes. We had a crazy busy day on Saturday so we had to postpone until tonight (Monday) but we had a lot of fun!
Mel thought to pop popcorn and feed the ducks while we were there. It wouldn't be a trip to Berg Park if we didn't feed the ducks!
Leah was dissapointed I wouldn't let her strip down to her undies and wade in the water. My children do not understand the meaning of 'SEASONS!'
"Hey, there, little cutie! Want a ride?" We hope he won't be picking up any other girls!
This is our little leaf-eater. Isn't she pretty?

Its good that you guys still go out and do things. we are lucky if we get out the door to take jeff to work. when i get a better schedual down with summer i think it will be better. I love seeing pictures of the kids and hope we get to see some of you and jimmy soon :)
Looks like you all had fun. Your family fun jar is a good idea, I may have to copy that one.
