we took the kids bowling for the first time a couple of weeks ago and, to my surprise, they both did really well! the bumpers were up, of course, but still, their scores were pretty impressive. i forgot to get a print out of their score cards, so you'll have to take my word for it. lucas was timid about it in the beginning. he didn't want anyone to watch him. what he didn't know is that most people are focused on their own game and no one else's. emma took to it right away and would stand with her hands on her hips waiting to see how many pins she managed to knock down. elise was scared at first, but was running around laughing and goofing around in no time. at the end of our two games, lucas and emma asked to stay and bowl some more. we would have agreed, except that we were all starving so we had to call it a night. we had a ton of fun, though! i love bowling!
lucas isn't so sure about this sport.
emma's pretty excited about it!
elise is scared of all the noise, poor thing.
the kids are warming up. emma is copying EVERYthing that lucas is doing these days, hence the identical pose.
here he goes...
allan knocking 'em down.
nate, waiting to see his spare.
my turn.
ugh! didn't catch that spare!
vicky's form is the best! :) nate kept telling her that they're going to have to patch up the hole she was going to put in the floor.
elise was all smiles in no time!
lucas' and emma's tiny bowling shoes, commemorating their first bowling experience. we are for sure going to do this again soon!

what fun!!! i love the pic of emma copying lucas, haha, does he ever get annoyed with that? but my fave pic is of you throwing your head back in dismay, haha. :)
I can't believe you have three kids of bowling age (at least I didn't say drinking age). Wasn't it just yesterday that we were bowling after the final day of junior high and I kept hitting the pin catcher?
