Family Reunion

Arriving at the Hotel. Loving the jets flying over every 3 minutes.




We met up with the relatives at the Bowling alley at Texas station for family bowl time.
Joel likes bowling








"Ariel" likes it as well.


Abby got amongst the relatives and insisted her name was Ariel. They didn't know better so that was her name for the weekend.



Pregnant bowling.


Not bad:

STRIKE!



Gramps bowling. He beat Eric in the second game. Not bad for 81!


After meeting with family for the bowl-a-thon, we went to the hotel and changed into clothes for the evening festivities, celebrating Uncle Don and Aunt Betty's 60th anniversary.

Yes, dancing did occur.




The girls were really into the dancing!




















Ethan not so much.


He did lighten up by the end of the night and enjoyed himself.

The aftermath, however was that all the kids slept the next day until 0900. That is simply unheard of in this family. Like a perfect storm. Someone is always up be 630 or so. Mom and dad simply enjoyed the nice quite time to get ready in an unrushed manner and talk for a while. That was the biggest treat of the weekend!

New Ride

This is probably the best $50 I've ever spent on a kid.

He stinking loves this bike. Way, way more than expected. Allows him to keep up with the sibs.
