Family Date Night




Friday night we decided to go out. We went up to Fat Cats in Salt Lake. We ate at the Pizza Factory and then went bowling. We didn't really know how Taylor was going to like it, but once we showed her what to do she had so much fun. She wanted to help on every turn. She tried many times to pick up the ball all by herself. Then she would help us push the ball down the lane. Kevin went and found one of those metal things that you push the ball on, then she could do it all by herself. She would then run back to us clapping before she even saw any pins go down. We had a lot of fun. I forgot how much fun bowling is. I just have to say - I am much better at bowling on the Wii than bowling in real life. After our game was over we played a few arcades. Our favorite one was Deal or No Deal. You play it exactly the same way, but you win tickets instead of money. So we let Taylor pick each brief case by pushing the buttons with numbers on it. She did so good. You have the chance to win up to 200 tickets. We played until we had two brief cases left and the numbers that were left were either 8 tickets or 200 tickets, and the banker offered us 104 tickets, so we took the deal. Taylor must be a natural at Deal or No Deal. We came away with a wand for Taylor, a whoopee cushion, and two air heads. We had a great time.

How fun! Think about how much Taylor learned just from that one night. I love that she wanted to help and do it herself.
