Monday nights in our family is called PIZZA, MOVIE AND GAME NIGHT. Every Monday we have Pizza and something fun to drink, watch a movie and play a game. Since we are poor we just have store bought pizza an .81 two liter (or juice) and a movie we already have. We pick the movie but let the kids take turns picking the game. When I was a kid Fridays were pizza and movie night at my house (still are, we have pizza twice in 4 days every week) so we decided we would continue the tradition-only on Mondays. We have added the game because we have soooo many games that if we didn't designate a day most would never get played. It takes a bit of effort and coordination to pack all this in on one night but the kids absolutely LOVE it. We like it to. Tonight we had pepperoni and meat lovers pizza, grape pop, watched The Lion King and played Elefun. I have great memories of my dad coming home with pizza and wondering what movie he got for us and I hope my kids will too.
Isn't is funny our kids still seperate themselves. John and Kaylinee both wanted to sit on the same blanket and both wanted green plates. Jase and Jayda wanted the pink blanket and the orange plates. Everyday, all the time, they do this. Not because its what they really wanted, just because they want to be different.
Elefun is o so fun! Jase always clobbers everyone at everything so we usually have a no win rule.
Happy Monday Everyone!!

I like a weekly pizza night too! One day I don't have to cook. Sounds like a good way to have a little FHE!
Our kids love Elefun too, and I just love to say it! Hehe
