Bowling has been a family favorite for years. Uncle Steve loved to bowl and made it a holiday tradition! We think of him every time we go. He was good at it.
Since we had a few days off from school we decided to take advantage of it. We went to the temple and did baptisms for the dead with some family. Nana has been working hard always having family names that we can do.
Thanksgiving was wonderful! We ate, then went on a treasure hunt and ate again. Then we lounged for a while and visited and then ate some more. Next the boys played some basketball while the girls watched a movie then surprisingly we ate again. After that we played Thanksgiving Jeopardy and then ate some fantastic dessert. And last but not least we sat around unable to move with stomach aches from eating too much. When are stomachs settled down we ate again and played some more games. WOW! We were exhausted. It takes a lot out of a person to eat as much as we did in one day.
It was an exciting Birthday. Sweet 16! We love having another driver around the house. He had his first date November 7 and they went to Color Me Mine and had hot chocolate after. The couples had a contest and Jacob and his date won.
EVery year for Brady's birthday we celebrate by letting balloons go in the sky. This year we let 18 balloons go since Brady would have been 18. We can't believe how quickly time seems to be flying by.
