1st Annual Nichols Holiday Bowl




We started a new tradition this year.... Rather than sitting around after eating and letting tryptophan kick in we decided to do what we Nichols do best -- play sports! After a delicious meal by my mother-in-law, we headed to the bowling alley and competed in pairs. Needless, to say Doobie and I took home the trophy as we narrowly escaped (if let Tee and Dominque tell it) with a win by 10 points.

But the real show was put on by Aunty Dorothy whodidn't know that if you step over the line you cross into an oil slick. She found out the hard way and it was "Man down! Man down!" If we had it on camera it would of been a big hit on YouTube. Note to self: must start bringing video camera places!

It was a great Thanksgiving -- especially hanging out with Big Bo, my brother-in-law from the ATL (now) and listeing to Ma'dea's crazy stories -- we now know how the Nichols craziness originates....
