From The Past: May 18, 2005

The Amazing Race ended, Tom won Survivor, and Everybody Loves Raymond had its series finale. Last night we watched American Idol, which ends next week, and then we watched half a movie, which we never do on weeknights. We will finish it this afternoon. Tomorrow, The Apprentice ends for another season and so does CSI and ER.

The kids LOVE playing games more than anything so I have an idea. I think I will write down the names of each game we have on small pieces of paper, fold them up, and put them all in a bowl. Each day of summer vacation we have free (that will be most days), I will let the kids take turns pulling a random game out of the bowl and we can play. I think they will be thrilled. Today is their first official day out of school!
