Happy 45th Anniversary!

My parents celebrated their 45th wedding anniversary on March 14th (way to go mom & dad!). Here's the card Mark made for them (fyi, my mom has some Cherokee in her).
Here's the front of the card:

Hot Dog!

Growing up, my sister loved hot dogs. She must have loved them so much that my dad wrote her a Hot Dog song. I had my dad sing it for the camera.....so here it is.....

This is where my family spent our time together while I was growing up....the skating rink (aka The Roller Dome). My parents actually met at a skating rink....and the rest is history. Oh, the fond memories of skating!

Kid throws a mean spin ball & I get cheated!

This kid is good! I think he's bowled a couple times before. :-) He doesn't even us the finger holds.....he holds the ball in the palm of his hand and then throws down the alley. I think I got cheated on my 2nd ball.

Impersonations!

Mike doing dolphin & Snoopy sounds. Then he does an impersonation of me when Kristi & I were young. My dad was filming us (we were probably 6 & 7) and Kristi came into my bedroom and was saying I needed to go help dry dishes (because Kristi had already dried a lot of them....yeah, right). So, I left my room and Kristi started messing with some of my stuff and when I came back in, I said "hey Kris, that was mine".

We went bowling on Friday night

Mike even bowled. He may not be able to see, but for two games his score was 20/20 (no kidding).

We went skating on Saturday night. Mom (Carolyn) helps Coleton with his skates.

My mom probably won't like it that I posted this picture, but oh well. She'll have to come to Wisconsin to get me. I love to have a fried egg sandwich when I'm back home. Mom makes the best! Here, she is busy making egg sandwiches for everyone. She uses a small skillet (that's seen better days) and she's used it for years! The handle has been missing since I can't remember when. It's her trusty old fried egg sandwich skillet!
