Weekend Fun! (from long ago)


I don't know how this post got stuck in draft mode for so long.  Better late than never, I guess.

Mark came to visit and brought the kids. We went bowling. I haven't been bowling in over 10 years. We had such a good time. I won one game with a score of 113 or something ridiculous like that. The next game I lost with a score of 56, which is equally ridiculous. When we were all finished, and Mark sat down and leaned over to take off the bowling shoes, he split his pants. Brittany laughed and laughed. She immediately posted it to her facebook account right from her cell phone. That meant we had to make a stop at the mall to get Mark some jeans. The ones he was wearing were the only ones he had.

Snow!

We had a big winter snowstorm on Thursday.  Yesterday, Mandy and kids came over for some fun in the snow.
