Bowling

Yesterday was a dismal, overcast, after-the-holiday blah day so we went bowling. Nothing breaks the blahs like bowling! Marie got to wear super cool shoes and we had bumpers on the gutters. She even used the metal aimer thing (I have no idea what that thing is called, it's like a ramp for the ball). Mackenson helped us bowl a few times and giggled as he watched the ball roll down the lane to hit one pin. Joe managed a gutter ball with bumpers, he is so talented. We had french fries for ti mange (snack); Mackenson and Marie ate them so fast you would not have guessed they've been stuffed on turkey all weekend. I bowled the best game of my life, 129 (did you read the part about the gutter bumpers?). Marie's score was 60, not bad for a first time bowler! When we were leaving Joe & I asked the kids if they had fun. Mackenson called out, "bowling yummy!". Yeah, he liked the french fries part of bowling best, go figure. Marie wants to go again tomorrow.
