Chowda' Night

Annie's family has a chowder/game night during Christmas over at Lisa's house and it was so much fun! 

There was a crab chowder and a clam chowder and of course they were to die for! 

Uncle Bill and Uncle Rich goofing off. 

I always love the decorations Lisa has out at her house. 

The delicious soup. Mmmm Good! 

I got a Wii for Christmas, but of course opened it early. We set it up over at Lisa's house so we could break it in. 

Garrett, Kate and Morgan were the first to bust out with some Wii bowling. It was so fun to watch them try to imitate their dad by putting a spin on the ball to try and get more pins. It was pretty impressive that most of the time they got strikes!

Sarah, Cindi, Lisa, Rachel and Rich enjoying some good conversation.

Brian is very serious when he bowls. 

Rick, Terry, and Bill

Lisa had Annie's name for Christmas and had asked me if I had any good ideas for gift for her. Annie was wanting Mario cart for the Wii, so that's what Lisa got her. She was so surprised!

Lisa testing out Mario cart, she doesn't look too sure about it. 

Uncle Bill looked like a little kid playing Mario cart, it was so much fun to watch.

Morgan was having a great time climbing all over the walls. 

Annie bought Just Dance 2 for the Wii and we brought that with us too. Everyone had a great time busting a move and working up a sweat. 

Aunt Sue, Bill, Terry and Bill finally got a turn at Wii bowling. 

It was a fun, relaxing night. There's nothing I love more than spending time with family and friends.
