Bowling

A couple of weeks ago we decided to go out bowling with some friends. Brynlee was really excited because it was her first time. We were able to print off some coupons for a FREE game of bowling with the rental of shoes, which were only $3. We also got free tickets to an indoor water park in the area! I love a good deal, and something to do to get OUT of the house is just what we needed! We're going to go try out the water park sometime soon when Nate's schedule isn't so busy! Yay! I can't wait!
It took Gracen a while to warm up to the LOUD music! He enjoyed watching the glowing lights spinning on the ceiling fans.
He got his chance at rolling the ball down the lane, as much as a 1 year old can, and after that we couldn't keep him away! He kept saying "ball, ball!" After someone else had a turn he would clap his hands and cheer for them, he figured out what bowling was all about!

Daddy helping Brynlee! She would get so excited to roll the ball down the lane. Her first try it probably took it 5 minutes to get down all the way. I kept thinking it was going to just stop in the middle of the lane. She would lift up her arms and jump up and down if she knocked any pins down!She was so excited to use a pink ball!

And...the cute shoes! When I first handed her the shoes, she looked at me like "What? I have to wear these!" Once she put them on, I think she thought they were pretty cool!
She left with a pretty good score, 74. For a first timer, she was a pretty impressive bowler!

What a pro bowler!! I don't think I can get that if I tried!! (and I took a bowling class in college... maybe I shouldn't admit that)

What a perfect idea during these cold months. We might have to go soon.
