Turkey Bowl.


Well this year for thanksgiving I was privileged enough to be invited along for the the Applegate annual turkey bowl. This family is awesome! I never met a family more competitive and entertaining in my entire life. We all met at the Davis Lane's early in the morning to get our bowl on. Of course I brought my "A game".. with a family like this... It's a must! :) Well let's just say I didn't do so hot the first two games. Trace's Dad, Scott, whooped everyone! So of course he was able to dust off his shoulders and call it a game! He was the champ... UNTIL the third game! Well it should of just ended there after the two games than Scott could walk out of there this year's champ. But no, I gave him a run for his money and ended up beating everyone! I scored the highest I've ever scored... a 186 baby! haha! can you believe that?! I couldn't, neither could anyone else! ha! It was awesome! Best game of bowling I've ever had!
I always have a good time with that Applegate clan! They remind me so much of my family. They all have such a close relationship with one another. That's how families should be. Your best friends are your family. I am so thankful that I have been raised in a wonderful loving home with amazing supportive parents! This holiday has been a different one for all of us..its just not the same without my dad. But we know he's watchin over us.
I want to thank the Applegate family for making me feel so welcome in there home. You've made this Thanksgiving one that I won't ever forget. :)
