The wrestling duo

Some of my fond childhood memories are of watching my brother and sister mix it up after dinner in the family room. It was almost like a ritual that we’d have dinner, then Angie and Brian would end up in the family room wrestling each other.

I, of course, was too grown up and too much of a good example to get involved. But I sure loved watching and egging them on. My favorite was when Brian, nicknamed CB (short for Cryn’ Brian), was finally big enough to stand his ground and actually gain the advantage over Angie.

Inevitably, someone would end up crying and whining to mom and dad that the other person hurt them. Ah, the good ‘ol days.

Lately Eliana and Dominic have been playing better with each other. Although there are four years between them, Dominic’s getting big enough that he can mix it up with his sister. Ellie still dominates, but that won’t last for long (right, Ang?).

Here are a couple photos of one of the latest Eliana and Dominic battles for supremacy.
