Happy New Year!


We began celebrating the new year at the Children's Museum at noon! We like to get an early start on partying. The kids love the opportunity to go crazy with the noise makers.
The loudness continues.
Later, we decided to try our hand at bowling. We thought we should keep our tradition of bowling at least once a year. Tonight's the night. I stole Lauren's purple ball and it did prove to be lucky, for awhile.
Brett and his brother, Sean, practice their moves.

You guys look like you had a blast! Bowling is a great idea for New year's eve - did the kids come too? or was it one of those rare "adults only" adventures? Maybe some day you and Brett will finally hang out w/ the Francis clan - we're not that bad!:)I'm just kidding!

Bowling was a family affair. I'm ready for an "adults only" adventure for sure! We def. will hang out with the Francis clan, but only if you own your bowling shoes. We're that serious. Yeah, right.
