Grandpa ended up winning both games which wasn't much of a surprise.
The surprise came with each of Grandma's three strikes!
Matthew was ecstatic to learn that he could play his "favorite" arcade game, Laser Dodge, after our bowling session ended. When he seemed hesitant to actually play, we discovered that Matthew had never really played the game. He had only watched others play it. After struggling to maneuver his body through the maze of light rays without touching any of them, I think Matthew dropped the game from his list of favorites.
We concluded our morning outing at Arctic Circle where we gobbled up some lunch. Those thick creamy milkshakes were delicious!
We celebrated Elly's birthday at our house Saturday evening with a dinner of chicken noodle soup, Grandma Bev's homemade bread, green salad and fruit....
...with a little chocolate mint cake and homemade vanilla ice cream on the side. Elly, with the help of all of her children, blew out the 28 candles that decorated the cake.
I think that means her wish comes true (unless she was wishing that she was only 28)!
Grandpa Gary's bean bag toss game and Cami's marriage book for kids provided great entertainment.
We were thankful for another opportunity to visit and interact with family!

Your family just must be LOVING having grandma and grandpa so close! Love reading about your family fun! Got my bags packed and can't wait for Monday morning . . . and am so excited that you and Jim are heading to Hawaii! We'll have to trade notes.
