Pizza Night

Once a week my parents (Grandpa and Grandma) host "pizza night" at their home. This is a fun tradition that has been going on for many years. It's a fun time for all of the Wilkins family to get together. We wish we could get there every week but we go as often as we can. This past "pizza night" we also celebrated Grandpa's birthday. He's 65 this year. Happy Birthday Grandpa!

Mmmmmm...Caleb and Gage enjoying their pizza

These girls LOVE their Uncle Patrick

Rachel, Emmalin, and Joslyn - Emmalin sure liked their pacifiers. She kept stealing them (even though she had her own).

This is a GREAT new game!! It can get pretty noisy with all of the grandkids running around doing their thing. Every now and then an adult will say, "Let's play dead fish". The kids stop what they are doing, lay down on the ground, and act like a dead fish. No one moves a muscle. It gets so quiet! Even Grandpa got in on this game.

I've seen the kids play that game at Grandma Nell's and it's amazing how quiet it gets! Whoever thought that one up- genius!

It seems like we've missed all the fun on that side of town! We miss you guys. We need to come over there and see you!
