<p><span style="font-family:arial;">Every family has words or phrases that are unique to the family. For us, one of the those phrases is &#8220;Ding Bat&#8221;. It is usually used with great affection and often combined with the word &#8220;Goober&#8221;. Who knows how this started but it is an appropriate title for our family blog. Our life rarely has huge events, just small ones that combine together to make our family culture. And, we have several members who ARE very silly people.</span></div>
