Thanks for your creativity!

Wow - tons of comments today. Since my oldest is 19 and home from college for the summer; and we have twins that are 17 and will be seniors next year - our favorite thing to do is just sit down and have dinner together! With everyone going in 100 different directions, it's just nice to sit down and reconnect. Linda from Park City, KS

OMG!! I love her blog!! I have read it a time or two before when you have mentioned her in your blog. Talk about a "CREATIVE FAMIlY" I love all of her ideas and thoughts and her family is great!!I would love to have her book and dive right in to all of her great stuff!!

The stuff that we love most is the really simple stuff: snuggling together in the morning before the rush to school and work begins and in the evening to talk over the day before we sleep; playing hide & seek around the house, reading books, creating art, & cooking. XX's BethBG

My favorite family thing? A week in Martha's Vineyard with everyone, not just Bob and the kids but all of my inlaws and their kids too. 18 of us in one house and a swarm of us on the beach! I wouldn't have it any other way!

Always great inspiration...love visiting your blog. The thins we enjoy right now as a family - playing baseball. Lots of fun and lots of laughs!! (I Spy is a close 2nd!)
Thanks!

We love to play "chase". Mommy gets to chase while Daddy hauls around our three year old on his shoulders. Total fits of laughter and a little exercise thrown in. Can't beat that!

I have a 3 1/2 year old and a 6 year old, if the kids eat a good dinner, each night their treat is milo and a game of go fish at the table straight after dinner. It doesn't take anything to organise, the kids love having a hot drink and a game of cards they can both play (with some help!) with mum and dad. I love it too, its the best bonding time.

We love to snuggle in bed on weekend mornings and just talk. We also like to do read alouds with each of the 5 of us reading a chapter.

Our favorite thing to do together is go camping, which we are doing this weekend. We also like to read together and do some art. My girls love to paint, draw whatever, so we do lots of that together as a family as well.

You are awesome to have these give aways.

Family Game Night has to be what we have fun doing. Also travelling together! Fun times!!!

Our favorite thing to do as a family is camp out on our great room floor with tons of blankets and pillows; make stove top, kettle cooked, popcorn with melted butter and salt, & watch home movies.

holy smokers, there's a gazillion comments. we love to camp as a family. no tv or computer to interfere. just us and crackling campfires, balsam fir trees and twinkling stars.

We love to go to our family holiday home which is near a river and go down to the river and collect shells and sit in the dinghy. Just relax together.

I think everyone's favorite thing in our family is bedtime stories together. Looks like a great book.

At night when it is time for the kids (4 and almost 3) to go to bed we read a few books and then ask "what songs do you want to sing?" One of them always makes up a silly name and then my hubby or I have to make up a short little diddy (that semi-rhymes) to sing to them. I think the one from last night went something like "Eli, Eli, he is flat, the elephant sat on him and made him go splat.!" :)
Thanks Ali for all you do for the world of scrapbooking...I look forward to reviewing your blog everyday. I keep thinking about blogging but don't know how I would keep up so afraid it would fizzle.

My fondest memories include our entire family playing board games (monopoly, sorry, clue), playing card games. Our Grandma teaching us crafts (embroidery, needlepoint, latch hook rugs). Playing badminton and picking berries in the forrest.
