Dueck Family Outing

Yesturday the Dueck family and I headed out to Winnipeg to celebrate Jared's birthday. We were to meet at Dakota Bowling Lanes by 4:45 ........ at least that's what MOST of us thought. Tyler was no where to be seen. Wouldn't you know.... he had gone to Academy Bowling Lanes!!! We did start without him since he was basically at the other end of the city! lol. He did arrive eventually and the evening went on. When you are bowling with the Duecks .... be prepared for some good compeition. They pretty much all seem to be amazing bowlers ..... even you Dana!!!

We headed off to Applebees for supper and Tyler almost didn't make the turn off (at least from what we saw, lol). It almost seemed as though he wanted to go bowling and out for supper by himself!!! Jared basically just got games for his birthday. From Tracy and Shannon he got a game called "Chicken Limbo"!!! lol and yes..... it requires you to do the limbo!!! It was awesome!! I can't wait to play that game!! It actually has a chicken on it and it sings a limbo song!!! He got a few funny cards as well .. but apparently it takes me awhile to catch on to such humor! Well the time had come for the talented group of Applebees singers. Our waiter had asked what the birthday boys name was and he replied ..... "Jared." She then got everyones attention at the restaurant and announced.. "Dan is celebrating his 2oth birthday". She had told us earlier while she was serving our drinks that she had short term memory ... but this was pretty bad since he had JUST told her his name!! We corrected her and she announced his real name. I must say..... the Duecks sure are a fun group of people to hang out with!!! Never a dull moment!!!! ( in a good way)!!!

Jared and I made sure we would make it home by 10 to watch the first episode of Amazing Race: All-Stars! I guess Sunday nights will be filled television watching once again!!
