Special Invited Guest

Friday nights at the Bunn household is the best night of the week. Every Friday a member of our family is appointed the ‘Special Invited Guest.’ You may ask, what does that mean? Well, that person has the privilege of choosing what is on the menu, and the family activity we play. Fabulous right? But there’s more. I also prepare a treasure hunt with all things yummy and we all have a turn in expressing why we love the ‘Special Invited Guest.’ Sometimes that is difficult, especially if we aren’t too happy with that person at the time.

This has become a family tradition that has created so many wonderful moments and memories. The kids and Gavin would decline invitations on Friday nights as no one wanted to miss out on this special night. There were always agreements during the week on whose turn it was 😂

Scheduling this family time filled everyone’s love tank. It is a moment in time that will last forever. As the children got older and worked jobs etc, it was harder to maintain the tradition, but we still do this whenever we can.

Everyone’s lives are busy, but I believe it’s so important to schedule family time. Our children are only with us for a very short time. Making time to have fun, to build each other up is time well spent.
Who’s the ‘Special Invited Guest,’ at your home tonight?
