Time Flies, So Have As Much Fun As You Can

Time seems to accelerate when you age. I've read about this phenomenon and I've really been experiencing it lately. CoolGuy's birthday was a couple of weeks ago, and we celebrated by visiting our children and grandchildren who live in northern Utah. They are the reason we live in Las Vegas. We are close enough to visit regularly, but we don't have to live where it snows regularly. We are willing to drive up there and experience snowy roads and cold weather periodically, but we don't want to live in it ever again.

So, we ate out at one of those Brazilian meat-fest restaurants for the birthday dinner. It's perfect for the variety of tastes and appetite levels in our group. There are noodles for the little kids, and spicy sausage links, and garlic sirloin steak for the adults. It's seriously fun and quite delicious, too.

Another day, we went bowling with some of the children. We had to wait a bit for a lane to open for us, so Grandpa gave some pool shooting lessons to one of the boys. We girls played air hockey, and skeeball, and then we got our shoes and did some bowling. It's never a dull moment, and really just so much fun.

 Auntie Skye noted that this was a lot of long hair at the "Wilk." I'd texted her a photo.

 It was a day for creative clothing choices.

 Plus, body English is an important part of bowling. 

 Later on, we had some more fun at home, reading books and being silly. 

Then, we got together with everyone again, and went to the Provo City Temple open-house. It was a lovely, lovely recreation of an historic building that had been nearly destroyed by a fire. Again, a great time, with people we love. After our tour, we went to Jessie's house and ate delicious food in the style of Argentina. That was the country that she and her children were studying that week, plus--the country where Josh served his mission, and where Analia was born and raised, and she was a missionary there, too. Fun Times!!
