I was blog surfing tonight and found a great tip from Courtney over at aisforbeautiful.com. On her list of “100 things about me,” number 49 struck me as an idea all families can adapt into their lives to gain more time together.
49. My family and I have a goal to go hiking every time there is a fifth Sunday.
What a great way to decide to do something special together, every time there is a fifth Sunday. Make it a family day. Maybe it’s a special dinner, or a day at the park, the zoo, a day to visit grandma. Maybe it’s a day to volunteer, or maybe it’s just family lazy day.
This year there are 4 fifth Sundays:
- March 31
- June 29
- August 31
- November 30
How will you spend them?

We’ve actually gotten kinda lazy in our hiking goal although it was a nice idea while it lasted. I’m hoping we won’t completely let it go by the wayside, but we haven’t been the last two fifth Sundays. Anyway, you listed some great ideas too! There should be 4 fifth Sundays in every year so it’s a great way to try to do a particular thing 4x per year.
Thanks for stopping by my blog!

Sunday’s are the bomb! I love Sundays. But then Sunday night rolls around, and I’m not so lovin’ it!
