Being so rural, our opportunities for new experiences are limited...or we have to travel long distances. And right now it's just too cold to want to venture outside!

Since we don't have cable, we encourage game playing. The kids play quite a bit of video games (of course), but we like to balance things out.

My oldest go a new Rummikub for Christmas, but we haven't played it in eons. Then, suddenly, everyone wants to play again. There's also been games of Cribbage lately too.
