The boys had a 4-day weekend this past weekend. We went to my parents house, since Jonathan was at the pastor's conference. James and Michael were able to come for the weekend as well. The boys had a great time playing together! On Monday, it was rainy, so Grandpa and Grandma took us bowling and to Chuck E. Cheese for lunch. The boys couldn't get over getting to do both of these things in one day! =) Here are some videos of the boys bowling:

Our Rainy Day Sock War
by Benjamin, Paul, James, Michael, Mommy, Grandpa, and Grandma
Monday, October 13, 2014
It was a rainy day so we decided to have a sock war. Most of us had not had a sock war before so Mommy and Grandma explained the rules. We put all the socks on the coffee table in the middle of the living room. We cleared out most of the breakable items and divided up our teams. Each round lasted one minute.
It was a good, crazy, and awesome game. It sounded loud, with lots of laughing and talking. The socks went whoosh, poof, and ker-plop as they went whizzing around the room. Our favorite part of the game was throwing the socks and hitting people. The socks boomed people. We are sorry to say Grandpa cheated by hording socks and throwing them all at once.
We are glad we didn’t break anything, even when the socks hit the wreath. It was really a miracle, because socks were flying everywhere. We didn’t break any windows and the cuckoo clock is still on the wall.
At the end Grandpa threw the basketball at Grandma, who was doing a Loser Dance. He hit the candle on the china cabinet, but it didn’t break, even though it fell on the floor. Good thing, Grandpa!
All in all it was a great game! Even though James took a time out because he got hit. Grandma told him there was no crying on her team. We were happy that he decided to play with us because he ended up having a lot of fun.
Thank you Grandpa for letting us use your socks!
