Came up with a winner this weekend, I think!
We invented a new game called Golfiator, which is kind of like a mix of golf and gladiator (no chariots). Goes like this: we're all in the yard with pitching wedges and whiffle ball golf balls. We try to hit each other, but you have to be a fair target, meaning you have to stand still if there's a ball coming at you. The adults and teens are worth 5 points. Jakey the 5er is worth 10 points, but if you tag him when he's running or in motion, it's an automatic win. Play up to 25 points. Winner gets a 30 second victory dance.

I think my kids are addicted to adrenaline. School's out, the stress of finals are over, today is the first real Monday of Summer, and I've already heard it: I'm bored. You know you're going to hear it too. Maybe we can get a collection of activities started, like a big yummy idea pool in which we can dip for responses to the dreadful phrase.
