Thanks Kat!!!

The Kat found Lucy a cute shoe chew toy. Which is timely, considering someone else (meaning NOT me - who has been pretty darn religious about closing the bathroom door protecting my shoes!!!) left the door open and Lucy went and chewed up my new gladiator sandals. Ugh. I really liked them. They were new. So...having this shoe arrive in the mail today was perfect! Thanks for thinking of her Katie Kat!!!! We gave it to her and Alice was over and the k ids were laughing because they could hear the shoe squeaking and squeaking outside somewhere. They both had it and were squeaking away. It was funny!!!

Quick trip to Sky High

Anth had a friend over so we ran to Sky High for an hour of jumping...

Lucky Strike bowling in Bellevue

Cole had his birthday party at Lucky Strike in Bellevue. It is by Bellevue Square and it is a very upscale-ish kind of bowling "experience" It is a really nice place though and would make for a great adult bowling group, which is what I think they cater towards...

Shoes all lined up

Getting ready to bowl...it took them a long time to pick out the right ball for them...

They had these cool couches to lounge on or snack on while you were waiting for your turn.

Hello!!! NOT okay! These are deep fried MACARONI AND CHEESE BITES! They were so good! Tracy didn't like them, wish I didn't. They sound gross, but so...NOT gross!!!! The lady who was our server told us they were like crack...once you start them...you can't stop. I forced myself to stop after two but let me tell ya. I coulda polished off a plate of these puppies!!!

It just had a cool ambiance. With a little vintage flair.
