    We would always go to the bowling alley, play the punching bag game, and him brandon and Chase could never beat the high score. Him and kelsey stayed the night at our house once and we all drank, and they would not stop laughing for anything. It was so funny. And the last time we were all together it was for my birthday dinner at Texas Roadhouse... rip buddy.
