Like Father, Like Child!

Daddy is a bowler and here is a little proof that his children follow in his footsteps!

P has a whole bowling season under his belt already, but this was a brand new experience for L! And she had a fantastic time.

And her follow through...


P is bowling one-handed now...


And he even gets consistently decent scores...


L did all of this game all by herself as you can see from the score. Her ball sometimes took forrrrrrrevvvvvvvvverrrrrrrrrrr to get down the lane, but it always made it. Towards the end of the second game Mommy had to give the ball a little extra push but bowling held L's interest for 2 whole games today.

We love Kids Bowl Free! which would allow each child to bowl 2 free games each day this summer. We're only taking advantage of that one day a week as it is the only day our bowling alley is open in the morning. Besides, we have too much fun doing other things during the summer, but this has been an added bonus as we get through this last month of summer.

Wordless Wednesday...up a tree!

A Half Birthday Celebration!

We celebrated L's 3rd birthday in June this year (her half birthday) instead of having yet another family gathering the week of Christmas with more food that is no good for us and no one knowing what else to get her and/or her getting way too much stuff all at once. It was fun to have a party for her outside in the fresh warm sunshine. Here are some pics. She was not very photogenic today, so none of them are great, but we tried and we'll always remember how her party went.  She wouldn't even put on her party dress, but she's still the cutest little girl I know!
