Saturday January 25

The day started out pretty fun.

And pretty early.

The kiddos all set their alarms so they would be sure to be up before Dad got home.

They all had their black clothes set out and the guns were loaded.

We had plans to ambush Dad when he got home from work.

We left a note and a gun for him outside the door, so that when he came in, he knew it was war!

It was so fun, because it was still dark outside, making it perfect for the lasers on the guns!

We heard dad open the garage door, and we turned off all the lights and hid in our spots.

Elsie and I were gun-less so we just sat in a safe spot to we could watch the fun.

I was dad sneak in quietly, and bolt across the entry way....and slide his back up the stairs.

And then it started!

Oh there were laughs, screams, and lots of bullets flying.

They kept at it for almost 25 minutes!

And then guess what happened....

Mama picked up a gun, and my second shot hit Cassi square in the eye!!!!!!

Oh man, fun over!

No, it wasn't over, but we did quit at that point.

They were all sweaty and giggling.

Loved it.

Our plan today was to celebrate Dads birthday.

So after the gym and showers, we headed to Panda Express for lunch, and then to Big Als for bowling.

We had a bit of a wait for bowling, so we headed to the arcade.

The kids all found some fun games and they won a bunch of tickets.

Then it was bowling time.

We probably bowled about our worst game EVER!!!!!!!

But man it was fun.

I think the most fun part was how easily we could embarrass Madi Bell :)

She really wasn't embarrassed too bad, but it was sure fun trying!

After bowling we ran a couple errands and then headed home.

We had plans tonight to go out to dinner with drew and Heather, so we met them at The Pinnacle around 6.

It was a fun time with them.

The day went by so dang fast, but we all had so much fun together.
