Family time?? What's THAT?

We have a big family. We have 3 teenage boys, a pre-teen girl who acts like she's 45, a 9 year old boy who acts like a 9 year old boy, a thisclosetobeing2yearsold toddler and a 3 month baby. There aren't alot of things that interest all of us at the same time. Family time is sorely lacking in this family.

A lot of time our togetherness consists of watching the boys skate or going to ChinaTown or, if we're lucky, going bowling. Unfortunately the most family time we ever really get is at dinner. Food consumption is one activity we can all agree on. We'd love to find something that we can all get behind and have fun doing. Oh yes and it has to be cheap, why? Go back and count how many kids we have. We have aspirations of family time, we have high high hopes for family time. And when we can get it together, we have loads of fun.

Just don't tell the teens friends that they enjoy playing bingo for candy bars with their parents. They'll never live it down.
