Family draw night is the latest addition to the Armstrong family weekly rhythm. With busy schedules and lots of our favorite people doing lots of fun things all the time, our weeks used to get swallowed up in a blur of activities and events that left us feeling tired and disconnected. So we learned to take what's most important to us Armstrongs, work those things into our regular weekly schedule, and say no to almost everything else. The result?...
Monday: Family draw night
Tuesday: Family vision night (where we go to a "kids eat free" night at a local restaurant and talk about our successes in working as a team that past week and specific things we can do to help each other in the upcoming week.)
Wednesday: Date night
Thursday: open
Friday: Family movie night (with pizza!)
Saturday: strengthening the fort day (i.e. house work)
Sunday: rest and relax!
We're always tweaking our weekly family rhythm but at least we finally have one!
How about you guys? Any weekly traditions?

I love this idea! I can relate to life just being a blur of things we have to attend and work we're trying to do.
