We're cave people!

I never realized how dependent on technology our family is. We have decided not to get internet or cable until we get everything figured out and my kids are so bored without their Netflix! It honestly makes me sad, they have a playroom overflowing with toys and a new neighborhood filled with kids(and puppies) and there's just so much fun stuff they're missing out on when they let Netflix control their lives. After realizing how dependent they are on it I decided we're not getting internet for even long, it was originally only a month, to teach them how to be kids again. I will admit, my mom, Jason, and myself are all at fault here for letting technology run our lives as well, I actually made a comment the other night that I need Netflix to fall asleep! Our family as a whole needs to get back to what is important and trust me, the numbers of likes on my latest Facebook post aren't as important as seeing my daughter do gymnastics or seeing my son play football. We're going to be living unplugged for awhile(minus the blog-I need the blog or I'll go crazy!)It is however ironic, the unplugged activities I found we're all on Pinterest, but you know that's okay what's important is we're going to make tons of new memories together and my kids won't have to think I love my smart phone more than I love them. Here's to being a cave person!
