Family Night

Tucker came home from work one night and decided that we needed a "family night." The rules for the evening: Thursday nights, no T.V. or computer (movies are o.k.), play games or cards, play outside, etc, and the kids get to pick dinner. I thought everything sounded great except for the kids picking dinner. So, we tried it and it was actually fun. Maddie decided to have chicken nuggets and onion rings for dinner (a dietitian's nightmare). We had planned to go over to the school and let the kids ride their bikes, but the weather was too cold. So, Tucker went for a quick run. The kids and I got the finger paints out and they had a great time. When Tucker got home, I got into trouble for starting family night without him. Then, we played UNO. I helped Nathan and Tucker helped Maddie. I won two hands and everyone else won one hand. We had a great night and it was a lot of fun. Unfortunately, we were unable to have family night this past Thursday because I was washing clothes and getting packed for a trip to Memphis with the kids (see later post).
