More Nanacation Fun............

Maddie & I made sugar cookies on Friday night.

We had a picnic at church on Saturday during a 9 am to 2 pm rehearsal for our Easter Production. Tyler & Maddie have been asking for a few weeks when we were going to have a picnic lunch at church, so they were pretty excited aout it. :)

When we got home from the rehearsal, Tyler & Maddie wanted to go sledding on our hill. Here is Tyler going down the hill.

"Real" Bowling

Tyler & Maddie are at our house for their "Nanacation" (in the words of J.D. their 13 yr. old brother). They came Wed. afternoon (3/23) and are staying until Sun., April 3rd. Today we took them bowling at the Brunswick Zone. Tyler has been mentioning for the last few weekends that they have been over, that he hopes we can go bowling sometime. "I've never been 'real ' bowling..........just Wii bowling," he said. :)

Tyler is very excited to bowl. :)

Maddie is also very excited to bowl. :)

Tyler shows good form.

"Go Nana!....Go Nana!.....Go Nana!" :)

Tyler throws the ball...........

..........and it looks good!

Maddie gave a great squeal every time she rolled her ball down the ramp. :)

This one looks pretty good........it actually ended up being a spare! Maddie won the first game with a 93..........she even got a strike! :) Tyler got an 83 in the 1st game. They both did very well & had a lot of fun!



Here is a video of Tyler bowling. :)

Todd's Knee Surgery 3/8/11

Todd had partial knee replacement on his left knee on Tuesday morning. Everything went well with the surgery & we are eagerly awaiting when he can walk normally again. :)

Todd & his get well balloons...........there is actually a purple star, too..........it apparently perfectly positioned behind the blue one so you can't see it. :)

Art & Dress Up Fun

Tyler & I built this art easel last weekend and Tyler & Maddie had a lot of fun drawing on it.

Tyler & Maddie Love the Trampoline

Back in February, we had Tyler & Maddie with us when we went to Northland Auto in Milaca to get Todd's truck worked on. They loved jumping on the trampoline. :)
