Bowling


When I was growing up, my family could be spotted at a bowling alley quite a few times a year. We're definitely a competitive group, but bowling was something we always enjoyed doing. Sure we were busy with sports and activities and studying, but once every few months we'd hit up the local bowling alley to have some fun.

We try to get out and do something fun with Drew each weekend and this past weekend we tackled this favorite pastime. Derek grew up enjoying bowling with his family as well and I would love nothing more for my children to appreciate the game like we did!




And, as much as I hate to admit is, I did lose to Derek. And I'll be a good sport and not mention I had to bowl with a ridiculously heavy ball for the first 5 frames. Had I had a normal weight, I probably would have slaughtered his score.

Just sayin.

  13. How fun! I'm a terrible bowler. Really, really terrible. In junior high, we used to go bowling once a week for PE (there was a bowling alley within walking distance of our school and we could bowl for $1), and I remember I actually bowled a 27 once. Twenty-freakin-seven. Ha ha.
