This has been our tradition for as long as I can remember---it started when the kids were little. We bowl on Christmas Eve. Partly just to keep the kids busy and keep their minds off Christmas. However, as they got older--we started being at Gma and Gpa Bergers a little later on Christmas Eve--and it got harder to find a bowling alley that was actually OPEN Christmas Eve. About 3 yrs ago--we decided to keep the tradition--just move it up earlier in the week. It took me planning this a month ago and telling everyone they HAD to get off work in order to pull it off. It's so rare...but so good...to have all the kids home at one time!
We ate first at Whistle Wok---or as Kaylee calls it---Asian food. YUM!
Shawnee, Kaylee, Devin
Stefanie, Garrin, Jaycee
Twinners in their hats
Go Kaylee!
Jaycee!
Garrin was doing great on the first game
Shawnee
Devin
So....because this never happens...I have to brag! I got my FIRST EVER turkey!!! THREE strikes in a row! I got a strike or spare in every single frame except one--and ended up with a 184. So I won the whole 2nd game. Even if we added the scores from the first and second games together---I still won overall! So rare....probably will never happen again.
So much fun! Our favorite Christmas Tradition!

I've been loving your updates! We went bowling on Christmas Eve this year and are thinking of making it a tradition. So fun! And we took a photo of our feet! :) How nice to have the whole family together. You look so great and I'm impressed with your weight loss! Good for you!
Thanks Kori! I've been trying to start my blog up again.AND...I'm trying to catch up for the last 2 years too. I'm taking excerpts from my letters to Devin while he was on his mission to help me remember what was going on then. LOL. It's his fault that I didn't blog...it would take me 2 hours to write him on sundays and that used to be my blogging time
