{works for me: conversation starters}

Do you sit down at the dinner table with your family every night?  I wish I can say that we do but we don't.  Between sports, trains, plays, and meetings we just aren't able too.  It's not that we are busy with bad things it's just that were busy and it's our reality.  So when we do get to eat together I enjoy it.

I wanted to make up some fun questions to have at the table so that we can have some fun conversations.  My teenagers aren't always wanting to talk about things or open up so I knew I had to do this.  I found these white glass vases at Michael's.  I cut out the question mark with my cricut and stuck it on the front to add some fun.  I printed out some questions, cut them out, then folded them, and stuck then in the vase.

Now all we have to do is take turns pulling questions out and the fun begins.
