The family that plays together...

has FUN! 5 years ago, and no, that is NOT an exaggeration, I bought a badminton/outdoor game set from Jennie at a yard sale we did together. For 5 years, it has been in its storage bag out in our shed or on the carport untouched by human life other than to move it out of the way to get something else.
Until 2 weekends ago.
Two weekends ago, I returned home from shopping to find the badminton net up in our yard! Ever since then, the kids have been having a blast. Several nights we have all gotten out there and played. We, collectively, are awful at it, seldom hitting the birdie more than 3 times in a row, but we laugh and have fun. We should have done this years ago :-).
