We declared our Saturday a family fun day. Blowing off everything on our "To-do" lists, we spent the entire day enjoying life as a family...with simple, inexpensive things. We ended our day with an after dinner obstacle course race that the kids LOVED....okay mom and dad loved it too. First the kids had to race their "racers" to our piano then climb through the "tunnel", over the boxes, and jump along the cushions before racing to the finish line. We did this over and over and over, until finally Ethan said ,huffing and puffing, he needed to take a break. That was our cue for bedtime. It was a great way to get our kids to burn off some of that energy, especially Claire, right before bedtime, and made for some fun pics :)
