I always take lots of pictures during but don't always get around to blogging about Screen Free Week. This year I will blog. Screen Free Week this year was May 4-10, and here are some of the things we did:
Argued
Fought
I had a couple wisdom teeth taken out so I read a lot while recovering- finished 4 books since I wasn't watching movies.
Celebrated Holidays
Star Wars Day and International Respect for Chickens Day were both on May the 4th. The kids and I
ran around Provo Canyon and had blue milk with dinner.
Cinco de Mayo was on the 5th of May.
Our wedding anniversary fell during the week so we had our traditional anniversary meal which is food we ate while we were on our honeymoon.
Mother's Day was yesterday. Jeremy made omelets and bacon and toast. Yumm. The kids gave me sweet notes they made at school and church.
Just as the Berenstain Bears enjoyed watching the stars come out instead of TV, we watched a nature show of our own- a beautiful thunder storm with lightning and rain and awesomeness.
We ate brownies and some yummy Hungarian food.
Lucky helped with baking.
Lucky helped with breakfast.
Lucky helped clean his tray off when he was done eating.
There was music
"I'm bringing home a baby bumblebee."
and games.
Fort building
Creativity
We had some good family time and I made the kids medals that said, "You're a 'smartie' for spending time with your family."
I forgot to mention that April 8 was No Sock Day. I was going to celebrate by going the whole day without wearing socks, but then it started pouring down rain when I was going to get the kids from school. I put on shoes and socks to walk to the school. However I saw a friend of mine who was picking up her daughter. She wasn't wearing any socks. How great that she celebrated for me and how great that it stopped raining for her.
