Bowling...Bowling...Bowling...

Rainee was invited to a bowling-birthday-party... and she was soooooo excited because she'd never been bowling!!! I don't know why... it's just something we've never done. Well, ever since she received the invitation she started counting down the days... and to be honest, I couldn't wait to go either... I haven't been in a long long long time... and I always had so much fun bowling as a kid... so I knew she would have a blast!!!

The party wasn't until 5pm... so, when the day arrived... all I heard the whole day was... 'is it time yet'... about every hour!!! Once we finally were there... we had the delight of trying to get her fitted for her shoes... which proved to be interesting.... after several tries... finally after several tries we found one that didn't fall off every time she took a step. Next up... finding a ball... there were so many to choose from, but all she wanted was a blue ball... which I could tell wasn't going to happen. In the end... she used whatever ball she felt like whenever it was her turn!!!!

She got the hang of it pretty quick... and although she was usually left with one pin standing and never got a strike or a spare... she couldn't wait for her turn. It proved to be difficult dragging the kids away, because they all wanted to keep bowling... but of course they couldn't because... it was a birthday after all and there was still birthday presents and cake to be had... 

We had the BEST TIME... on our way home... Rainee decided she likes bowling sooooooo much, she wants to know when we can go again.... and can she pleaseeeeeeeeeee have her own ball next time... preferably in blue???? Too cute!

I love to bowl. I wish we had a bowling alley closer to our house, but it's 25 miles away. I have fabulous memories of going with my dad as a kid. Great pics!
