Make it a safe one!

New Year's Eve!

On New Year's Eve the teenagers usually rush off to their friends to celebrate the new year.  So, we try to do something together during the day.  Last year we went bowling and we loved it, so we kind of made that a tradition.  Off to bowling we went.  We love it.  We have a lot of laughs.  There was this guy next to us who was a professional bowler, and we were worried that we would annoy him.  Lets admit it, we can be kind of annoying at times.  He handled us well.  He even started cheering us on!  Yeah, especially when I got three strikes in a row!!!!  Don wasn't too happy about that!  It was a lot of fun.
Oh Aubrey!  Only she can wear pearls while bowling!
Ian won the first game.  He was so excited. Don won the second and I won the third!!!!
This is us giving praise for the higher power that helped us bowl today!

Winter Fun!

Every Christmas Break we head to Mt. Charleston to play in the snow.  I don't think we made it up there last year because there were storms and we couldn't get up the mountain.  This year we made it up there.  The weather was perfect.  We had a great day!   I love Mt. Charleston.  It is so pretty up there.  Big thanks to those who let us use their snow gear.
