Family Date!

We had a groupon-esque coupon that was set to expire Monday, so in typical Van Hoose fashion, we used it at the very last minute possible! We went on a "family date" to bowling. The whole thing ended up costing us $7! Yay for good deals! The kids absolutely loved it

They helped type in their names. (This is Lucy's shy, ornery pose.)

They carried the balls over. Poor Sammy dropped his on his thumb once :(.

This was Lucy's unofficial job.  She was in charge of helping the balls out of the ball return. Do you love the hat? :)

She was pretty proud of herself for being able to carry her ball by herself.

Push!

I love this expression!

The ball was a bit heavier for Sammy Boy.

Mommy and Sammy posing for a self-portrait! :) He was getting tired by this point and just wanted to snuggle with me.

Our scores. Yes, I just barely beat the kids. And I wouldn't have if the bumpers hadn't stayed up the whole time!

Family Portrait to finish off the night! :)
