A few other happenings

If you can believe it, the kids had never been bowling until a few weeks ago. Brian's work had a family gathering at Sun Valley lanes with pizza and a couple of games of bowling. They LOVED it! They had a blast. The bowling alleys are kind of slick now, you can designate which bowlers in your group need bumper lanes, and they just pop up at the right times, so the kids always had bumpers and Brian and I didn't. Each kid got at least one strike or spare, usually bowling underhanded, although Grace started pushing it backwards from between her legs, that was funny.

These pictures are kind of funny. The kids' classes had a 50's sock hop for the 50th day of school. So, we decked them out in 50's clothes and the boys even got their hair slicked back. Will's teacher invited me up to help with the party (I served root beer floats). Then they learned the Hand Jive. Xander's class watched a Leave It To Beaver episode and Grace learned the Twist. What a fun day!!
