Family Night

Friday night here at our house is Family Night. We started this long ago and have made it a priority. We almost always have pizza and often we rent a great movie. But with Lenny's schedule, obviously he is not always home on Fridays. The kids and I will always have pizza but we wait for Saturday to do something as a family. Such was the case this evening.

But instead of a movie, we were creative. Didn't plan to be...it just happened. Jacob had to paint his little wood car for the Pinewood Derby next weekend and Sarah had to get her Star of the Week poster ready for next week also. So, Lenny went to work with Jacob and I with Sarah. We were all sitting at the dining room table doing our thing together. Chatting away about our projects. It was really neat to hear Sarah say "Oh your car looks hot Jacob" or him to her "I like your pictures Sarah."

After a while, I noticed that Lenny was intently painting his car and I was taping letters to the poster. The kids were, well, they weren't at the table. They were on the floor playing hockey while we did their projects. Oh well, at least we were still together in the same room. hehehee

Here are their cars unfinished.... then finished. And too, the Star of the Week poster. I am going to put that picture on her poster. Thanks for lookin'.
