Family Christmas BASH!

 *NOTE: Christmas party + family = A LOT of pictures in this post!!

The holidays....I LOVE THEM. We had our third annual "Wilkerson Family Bash" this year, but instead of doing the "same ol" thing...I chose to shake things up a bit. I rented the bowling alley, bought a bunch of pizza's and we all came dressed in our UGLY SWEATER'S for a great holiday CONTEST. It was SOOO much fun that I think we might just do it again, and maybe even again and AGAIN!! It was easy preparation and easy clean up, everyone had time to eat, bowl and visit....and someone ELSE got to vacuum up and clean the bathroom when we all left~ NOW thats the way to PARTY!

 Erik "sharing" what he had for dinner....while waiting for his turn to bowl 

 I bowled a little, but spent most of my time visiting and taking pictures...I wasn't 
very good with the ball!

 Jack's ball, headed straight for a strike!

 My three boys, not very often we get them all together...life is too busy anymore
so it was so nice to have every single person at the party!
