Bowling

Like so many of our friends, we too, have started a marble jar at our house. Caleb gets two marbles in the jar for good behavior, and one marble taken out for bad behavior. He actually got about half a jar of marbles dumped into his jar while he slept too, because Daddy did not think it was filling up fast enough the first time to continue being effective. And when he filled the jar, he got a trip to the bowling alley. Luckily, the kiddie lanes are not oiled...

And a trip to the bowling alley would not be complete without a snack...a "spicy blue" drink and popcorn for all that good behavior.
And, of course, Silas lucked out being that he made no marble contributions, but also got to reap the benefits of a full jar.

I love the pic of Caleb with his wrist "flicked" like a big-time bowler! Nice form!!

That looks like so much fun. Next time we're at your house I might have to put some extra marbles in the jar so we can go then too. :)

What a wonderful way to be rewarded for good behavior.
