    Cute video. The doggie kiss on your baby’s face was a bit eewwwww inspiring. Enjoyed the sophisticated visual effects with the map and plane. Very Indiana Jones. And glad to see you’re coming to the dark side… well, southern side… with the “y’all” there at the end. Nicely done!

It shouldn’t have taken this long, but I just we It shouldn’t have taken this long, but I just went bowling for the first time in my life! 🎳

I avoided it at first because it didn’t seem that fun. Then- because I didn’t know how to do it. But, this year I’m challenging myself to try new things. Even if I look like an idiot! Who cares?! 😃

Bottom line, loved bowling. I suck. But it’s fun! Who knew? Well, lots of people. But now me too! Also- it’s helpful to have friends that make you try new things and expand your horizons. Super grateful for mine! ❤️
