The person's whose name is drawn, gets to pick the game, or games depending on how long it takes to play that night. That persons name will not be put back into the mix until all names have been drawn.
It works out too, as there are 4 of us who choose, since the 2 year old really doesn't care or understand, he just likes to sit and watch, and is generally on mommies team. ;)
Family Game night is done on Monday nights, as the husband is not working that night, so its something to look forward to each and every week.
This was the first week for game night. The 4 year old picked so we ended up playing a game with a gross title, Bed Bugs. Remember that game?
*note to self* Make sure you specify GAME when searching images on google. *gag*
We then proceeded to play Operation Buzz Lightyear edition.
Its not just Mondays that hog all the fun though. Tuesdays are also daddy's day off, so we have a separate drawing for Movie Night.
As long as the movie is family appropriate, the person's name who was drawn can pick whatever they want and whether the rest of us like it or not, too bad. We are to sit as a family and enjoy the whole film.
Last week was week one for Movies. The movie chosen was The Avengers.
I haven't really come up with dedicated things to do for the rest of the week, but the kids won't sit home bored.
Anyway, so far, we are really enjoying dedicated family time. It is something everyone can look forward too, and doing things together is proving to be a really great experience. We have spent time together before, but now that it is slated, its much more often. The kids are much happier, and in turn, so are we. :)
