We like to lay in bed together and cuddle, talk, carry on. The kids really enjoy this too and it is the one thing that they will sit and do. And for the most part not fight with each other

We like to go for walks, the zoo, the aquarium, Science World but the most fun thing is just being together & that usually involves watching hockey or dance b/c the kids do those activities ;\)

We love to go swimming. Also although it's getting a bit cold for it now we love to go to the park and feed the ducks/geese.

I would have to say that during the summer (while DH was on parental leave), we all went out to playground parks. But with the weather going from warm to cold, we will have to do a family swim at the indoor pool when DH is on his days off from work.

watch movies. We love to have movie nights, pop some popcorn and snuggle up under a warm blankie.

For outdoors in the summer it would be swimming and winter it would be sledding.

We go biking together, my kids love toodling around the streets and waving to the neighbours. I don't allow them further than the front of the house unless I'm with them, so they consider it a big treat when we all go together. We also like to make popcorn and all snuggle on the couch together to watch one of their favourite movies of the moment. We loved "Flynn on the Fly" about a dog that turns human \:\)

We like nature walks during the fall, sledding during the winter, biking during the spring, the beach during summer. A good movie and popcorn throughout the year.

Right now I'm working full time, DH is working part time and going to school full time and DD is in Daycare, so if we can have 5 minutes to eat breakfast together it is GREAT. And actually breakfast is a big one for us when we can all be together. We love going out for breakfast or staying and making a big pancake breakfast. And we too have enjoyed "lie-ins" since DD was a tiny baby. --Just hang out in bed until DD gets hungry and insists on breakfast. We also like to go peddle boating on the lake by our house - when we can actually do it.

Ours is going out for Sunday morning breafast with our neighbours who are like family to us. We've been going every Sunday (that we're home) for 7 years. Once ds was born he started coming at one week old and all of the customers at the restaurant have watched him grow up .

We love playing games. Our current favourites are Settlers of Catan, Quiddler and phase 10 dice. We also love having breakfast out together. It's great as a family, to connect with just one child or as a cheap date for dh and I.
