Holiday Bingo

My grandma Johansen started a tradition when I was little to play bingo after Thanksgiving dinner. A few years ago, Mom and I made up our own game. After someone won, they got to pick out a wrapped prize, the next winner could steal one of the others that had been won or pick their own. You would think that only the little kids would want to play, but all the adults get into it too. Mark was getting all bent this year because he wasn't getting bingo. He would say he got it every time. Mama Jo didn't believe him when he finally did.


Poor Bethany didn't win until the very end. She was so patient. Good thing Grandma Jacki rigged it or I don't think it would have happened at all.

I don't think Mick was quite as excited as it appears over his winnings. The kids were his best buddy because it was filled with candy.


Emma was the first one to win. She was so excited with her prize. How perfect for her. Good thing no one had the heart to "steal" it from her.


Hana just loves her cousin Sammy. He loves to be involved with whatever the kids are doing.

Poor Bethani. She is such a good girl to be so patient. When she gets old enough we better not take her with us to Vegas.

And I just spelled her name wrong. Sorry.
