Bowling is AWESOME

It's hard to believe that we had never taken Riley bowling - I'm not sure why - and I guess technically she had been bowling, just never gotten to do the whole bowling thing herself (she was around 18 months the only other time we went - and pretty much just played and ate apple dippers from McD's the whole time) Not only that - we have a bowling alley right here in our town and it's super cheap - like .99 a game, seriously.

Riley had to have a pink sparkly ball - and I was super excited they had shoes small enough for her - which she loved because she could slide around!!
The bumper lanes were taken so we gave it a go on the regular lane the first time.............
and then decided maybe the ramp was the way to go. Not only did she get a gutter ball the first time, but it took about 2 minutes for the ball to make it down to the end, seriously.

Riley thought the ramp was pretty cool, but she was very particular about getting to aim it herself - and if Daddy tried to move it, well she reminded him that it was her turn and she could handle the aiming of the ramp all by herself.
We bowled a couple of games - ate some pizza - had some fun with friends - and mommy, yeah the lady who is pretty much 6 months preggo - she won - by a lot, check it out!!!! (R=Riley, D=Daddy, M=Mommy, G=Gabe, S=Sarah, H=Hannah). Also, notice that daddy only beat his 3 year old by 8 points - your welcome for pointing that out dear :)

Note to Self: When in MO go bowling with Joey. He might make me look good.

When I was pregnant, I would either bowl really well or worse than Riley. I blamed the baby.
