GAME NIGHT

Last night was a breathe of fresh air from the norm.  I counted 13 kids and 10 adults.  And yes, I still have my sanity, lol.  Once a month we try to get together for game night.  The guys network 3-4 XBox 360's and play Halo... even the 3 yr old.  By the way, he can play just as good if not better than some of the others.  I grilled tons of hotdogs and every one pitched in.  It was a double event night this time being we were the host house for a friend of ours.  He wanted to have a surprise B-day party for his other half.  She was definitely surprised and teary eyed.  All the kids got along great with no issues.  We used to do this every Saturday night, but the frequency caused the whole thing to lose its purpose.  Once a month has worked out very well and everyone seems to really enjoy themselves.

LESSON:  Make time out of your busy schedule to make time for your family and friends from time to time.  Life is extremely fast paced and this enables us to spend that quality time needed for all.  We are also guilty of not spending enough time with the people we love and care about as much as we would like to.  We hope to get better in this department.  Life is too short to waste it.
