Bowling: Good, Clean (mostly), Cheap, Family Fun

We are not a big bowling family; I'd say I go on an average once every 5 years or so. We haven't gone the last two years because bowling in Small Town costs a small fortune. On Monday we went to a little bowling alley in Heber with 6 adults and 6 kids.

Thanks to Guapo, I've got some great pictures of myself from behind. Check this form:


You'll be shocked to learn I rarely break 100 points.

And here I am after I have sat on a puddle of Sprite that Julio spilled on my seat:


The kids had a BLAST. Aren't bumpers wonderful?

Here's Juan Carlos (3 yrs old) experimenting with kicking the ball instead of rolling it (receiving some coaching from Julio):


It would take that ball what seemed like an eternity to make it down the lane:



Margarita (8 yrs old) was ticked because Julio (and Juan Carlos, I think) beat her. She sat around and whined and cried for about a half an hour and then told Guapo she was going to challenge all the kids to a running race when they got home so she could beat them all . I just can't imagine where she gets her competitive spirit from!

And finally, you can see my best score EVER. 129. And until the last few frames I was on track to take Guapo down. Unfortunately, he maintained his cool better than I did and pulled out the spare in his last frame. Dang it.


It was a tough blow. Margarita and I ended up pouting together.
