Megan's 15th Birthday Party!


For my birthday I did a mall scavenger hunt. We had a list of things in the mall to take a picture of. Every picture we took with the right object, gave our team one point. We split into two groups and raced to see who could get the most points in the given time. After the scavenger hunt we went to Frogurt to eat yummy yogurt and open presents! It was a lot of fun!

Lindsey Laugh


We were walking with Lindsey when she called out a familiar childhood rhyme with an accidental twist, "Don't step on the cracks, or you'll fall and skin your knee". We thought it was so cute. It is now a familiar phrase when we are out and about.

Park Party

We invited the family to meet at the park for a little get-together with Grandma while she was here. Jeff and his kids joined us for a nice visit and some football. Not to be boastful, but Team Bruce won the scrimmage.

sleep-over with Grandma


Tyson didn't actually sleep with Grandma, but the minute he woke up (5:45 am) he was ready to join her. I held him off for 2 hours, but then gave up and let him loose. He apparently went down and crawled into bed with Grandma and stayed there for close to an hour! As time went on, Megan and Kyle joined the party. The more the merrier, right Grandma?

The Lion King

Bruce surprised us with Lion King tickets. Kyle decided that he wanted to go to his football game instead, so we had a great idea, and called Grandma Gwilliam to see if she would want to come with us. She was a good sport and packed her bags and came out spur of the moment. So Meg, Grandma, and I ventured up to the Capitol Theatre and watched a great production and then enjoyed a filling dinner at the Olive Garden. It was a great girls day out! Thanks Bruce!

Driving Diva




Megan is now 15. The legal age for a learners permit. We went on her birthday, but due to not having the correct documentation and getting there late, we were asked to come back the next day. The next day, Friday, was late start day, so we went a little after 7, processed her paperwork, and she took the test. In order to get your permit, she had to get 80%. She passed with no less than 81% - but she did do it on her first try. She has been out a couple of times since and loves being behind the wheel.
