Champions

In need of a little family fun time, we ventured out to finally redeem our Catholic Schools Week coupons at Champions. "But can we go there, too? Isn't it just for champions?" Andrew asked. Well, yes we can!We enjoyed a couple of games of bowling. Here's Andrew chasing his ball that went the wrong way instead of down the lane!

We had the bumpers up & the girls used these metal rollers to make it much more effective than Rebecca's prior methods. Andrew broke 100 & Rebecca knocked down 52.

Even more fun was the Adventure Maze, however. They all could have run around in there for hours! Rebecca spent her first 10 minutes collecting all the balls that she could find & putting them back in the ball pit. Likes to clean up everywhere but at home...

It was definitely a fun time! I think we'll go back for the maze again soon. Give us a call if you'd like to join in the fun!

Bowling with GodTeens

Rebecca was hilarious! She basically would just drop the ball at the line & give it a little nudge. After about 3 minutes it would make it to the end! She would wiggle her body one way or the other trying to direct the ball. There was only once that the ball actually bounced back off the pins instead of knocking them over! What a riot. She was everyone's cheerleader as well.

"That was really good, ____!"

"Wow! Nice bowling, ___."

"You're a big striker, _____!"

It was a nice time to spend just Rebecca & me. We bowled, chatted, & shared a bag of Nutter Butters. Gotta love girl time.

On a roll

Bowling. I like it a lot. I'm not very good at it, but I think it's fun.

We took our GodTeens along & had a fun time.

Teresa missed all but about 15 minutes of her nap & Rebecca was a tad overwhelmed by all the "big kids", so a snack from the vending machine was a mega-highlight to their experience. ;)

One of the other couples' little guy would push his ball down the lane... it only took about 50 seconds to finally make it to the pins. He actually did pretty well, though!

This was only Andrew's second time bowling ever. Last time we were at Champions, where they have those handy dandy metal guides for the little kids but they didn't have those on east campus. So, he was determined to do it just like us. Check out this approach! Amazingly, he only dropped it once. He actually broke 50!

My first time bowling was at my classmate Crystal's first birthday party. I loved it so much that my score from that day has been my favorite number ever since: 47.

Hey, baby

wanna go bowling?
