Dorothy took the Yellow Brick Road:

while I chose the Psycho Path!

This turn of a phrase had Michael and the kids laughing on the way home from a nice family dinner out. We only had to tell Eve and Noah to get out from under the table once. The waitress was very friendly. Michael spent the time waiting for our main course by showing the kids how to "bend" their forks, pretend to stick straws up their nose, and how to "push" the salt shaker through the table. They all tried their hand at the fork bending and straw tricks.

::::::::::::First Basketball Game:::::::::

Aaron enjoyed his first game. He wants to learn how to play better and his coach was very encouraging. (Aaron is the kid in the middle with glasses, white t-shirt and blue jersey)

::::::::::::Daddy Daughter Bowling:::::::::

Rachel and Michael had a blast at the Girl Scout sponsored event at the local bowling alley. They took pictures of all the dads with their girls and the one of Rachel and Michael is marvelous! I need to reconnect my scanner, so I can post it here. Rachel snapped a few crazy photos of Michael.
Michael took a photo of Rachel sending it right down the center heading for a strike: Here is there final score:
Rachel: 98 and Michael 142

Yeah for a great day!
