And a little fun in between

With the crazy schedules we all have it has been rather hard to get together with friends...BUT we still try to find the time. One weekend Micah had a craving for bowling. We decided just the two of us going would not be as exciting so we decided to drag the Mooney's along with us.

Now, bowling has never been my favorite thing to do, but I tried to humor them by participating. I cringe at the thought of actually trying to bowl well. The only bowling i have done in the last 8 years has been with Camp of Champions....if you call that bowling. Of course we only use lanes with bumpers because we have 7 kids per lane under the age of 10. And no one actually tries...well maybe the boys do, but the girls just sit and do each others hair and have to be reminded that it is their turn to bowl...and then they beg someone else to go for them. Needless to say, bowling without bumpers was quite the challenge.

But it was fun. And if anyone lives in Morton, you can bowl at their little shack of a bowling alley on saturday nights for $16 (includes shoe rental and crazy lighting as well as unlimited games from 9-11:30.) We got our money's worth.
Jennie is excited to bowl!
Me acting thrilled
Dave telling me to put the camera away, and then struggles to bowl because of the bright flash
Micah trying to look macho
The final score of the first game. NOTE: I didn't lose. Also note that this was the ONLY game i didn't lose :o)
David pouting because he lost to me....only once of course :o)
Disclaimer: Morton bowling alley is usually full of Teeny-boppers or older drunk people so it can be a bit unruly at time. I would recommend the Christian Center in Peoria if you have a chance to go there instead!
