Dinner with a side of "Uncle D"

Tonight we went to dinner with family and friends as part of the celebration of James birthday. Uncle Daniel was able to come along with us! When we were in the adult/junior bowling league we bowled over by Uncle Daniel's house and we would meet him every Thursday night for dinner. 99% of the time it was Round Table Pizza!!! Uncle Daniel either really loves pizza or he really loves us...but tonite was Hawaiian BBQ. YUMMY! Here he is with Justin.


We have missed our weekly dinners with Uncle Daniel. We need to restart the tradition even though we aren't bowling right now! After all, who doesn't need their weekly dose of Round Table Pizza...and Uncle Daniel!!! Here he is with Tyler.
