Bowling

Last Monday, January 11, we went bowling with my family. It was the kids' first time bowling. It was lots of fun. Moby got the high score of the night with 176. Julia loved playing. Jack liked to play too but he got hungry. During the second game he got some money from Grandma and said that he was going to buy food. He got some fries. They were really good. After he ate the fries he was ready to play again. Three games of bowling made my hand tired.

Moby and Guns

I don't know if this is a boy thing or a Moby thing, but he loves guns!! (I think it is a boy thing.) We went target shooting on New Year's day in Tooele County. Moby wanted to sight in his AR 15. It was cool to shoot in the snow. I could see where my shots were hitting in the snow if I missed the targets. I prefer shooting the 22. The kids had fun hiking and playing in the snow. After they got cold they sat in the car and watched a movie. It was a great way to start the new year, off with a bang.

Project #1

Moby bought me a sewing machine for Christmas. I am so excited. I have wanted to learn how to sew for the longest time. I decided to start with a simple project that was basically sewing in a straight line. I made a car seat canopy for Ben. They are all the rage right now but I just couldn't bring myself to pay $40 or more for one. This project cost me about $8 and took less than three hours (an experienced seamstress probably could have done it in half the time but this was my first project.) I really like the way that it turned out.
