I have a million pictures of the two of us sitting together, heads tilted, smiling at the camera. . . But how often do I get a picture of us
wearing matching shoes?
Something this great could only happen on date night!
My girlfriends and I decided to include the guys in one of our get togethers. We all went to dinner and then headed to the bowling alley. I confess, I am a terrible bowler. I think it is a lot of fun but I just can't seem to take it seriously. I never care about my bowling form or my score! Thank goodness my friends feel the same way! After our first game, which Janis won (Go Janis), we decided to have a granny war.
If you find that you are unfamiliar with the term Granny Bowling. . .No Worries. . .Let me show you. . .
Maria is on the left and I'm on the right. You'll notice we each have our own unique style. Maria uses upper body strength while I prefer the squatting approach.
So, maybe I've got you smiling by now. . .
Let me unveil my all time champion bowling move. . .
Yep, that's me! I about fainted after my turn was over. Not because I was bowling upside down and backward but because I got a strike!!!
There are few places in the world where you can actually let your hair down and act crazy in public. Some people can do this at football games, others at concerts. I find that I am most comfortable making a fool of myself at a bowling alley! But I'm not alone. Most of the groups of bowlers were laughing having fun. Nobody seemed too concerned about looking silly. For instance, George did the caterpillar after one of his turns! And Brady was even willing to take a granny shot! And don't tell too many people this but we talked Justin into skipping like his cute little niece does after she takes a turn bowling. I'm sorry I don't have pictures of these hilarious events but I'm going to make up for it.
There's a saying used by the U.S. Marine Corps. Maybe you've heard it...
"We're looking for a few good men."

Love the matching shoes! Looks like you had lots of fun and it takes a very strong man to hold your purse. Good job to all of you!
