BINGO...
and BLACK-OUT!

every thanksgiving my parents play bingo with the grand kids. this is completely their kind of fun and a great tradition. even the teenagers love to earn christmas money through bingo and are good sports, well, slightly sarcastic sports. when someone gets bingo they pick one of my mom's hands from behind her back, one holding a chocolate dollar and one a real dollar. kai looked forward to bingo for weeks. he loves the numbers, the competition, cousins, the candy, the money, and mostly the grand prize for black-out. i am grateful i have an honest mom...except when it comes to bingo. i'm pretty sure she "helped" the last two years so kai would end up winning the black-out prize. he was thrilled!
