A Bowling First!

During the week between Christmas and New Year we had some fun family time. As well as getting things done around the house, we spent a day shopping in Columbus and took a trip up into Amish Country as it's been quite a while since we've been up there.

Another fun outing we had was to the local bowling alley. We realised recently that the only time Abigail had ever bowled was on the Wii!! We invited some friends, the Fishers, to join us and it seems that Jonas who is just 2 months younger than Abigail had only ever bowled on a Wii too!! Here they are posing in their bowling shoes ... the smallest size at the alley!


Abigail, Jonas and his little sister Lucy (who is 1) had a lot of fun ... and Caroline, Ben and both of us us enjoyed having the bumpers up the sides to give us a greater chance of scoring well too! Naomi just thought it was fun to slide around the floor and watch everything that was going on!



We passed the littlest munchkins around between us ... and the older two were just too eager to help and play regardless of who's turn it was to bowl! They also decided that sometimes it would be fun to just roll the ball rather than use the ramp to push off from ... the slowest moving bowling balls in history but they still scored some points!


Once the kiddos got the hang of the bowling thing ... they switched their attention to the blower at the end of the ball return ... as you can see it was lots of fun too!



We had lots of fun together and will definitely be returning sometime soon. Abigail will be able to teach Naomi in a year or two. In the meantime she will just give her lots of cuddles!!
