Bowling with the Bradbeers

So a month or 2 before the Bradbeers came to visit I came across a great Groupon for bowling here in town.  $29 for 2 hours of bowling, including shoes, for 5 people, plus a large pizza and 2 pitchers of soda.  So dinner and 2 hours of bowling for 30 bucks!  My family purchased one right away.  As a full-time student family we have to really limited our "fun money".  And by fun money, I mean money that literally just doesn't exist, and that we just don't spend.  But every six months or so, if the right deal comes along that seems like it will be worth it to make fun family memories, I feel like I have to take it.  It seemed like this would be fun to do while Matt's sister's family was in town, so I let her know about the Groupon, and she purchased one for her family as well.  It ended up being a really fun night.  I was a little exhausted, hot, and sweaty, and pretty sunburned after spending several hours during the day doing yard work, with my trusty nephew as my helper, but I had a blast anyway!




I love this shot of Tom and Matt making the exact same expressions, "Now look here.  We take this bowling seriously, Missy!"

Kate's victory dance moves!  Victory dances are MANDATORY if you wanna bowl with us.  As are bowling names.

I feel like to make it fair, everyone else should have had to harness a bowling ball to their tummies and then try to look cool while bowling, just to make the pregnant lady feel better.  :)
More dance moves

Pizza and rootbeer?!  What more could a kid ask for?














 












As I am sure you can tell by these pictures, not only to we all have super sweet dance moves, but we had a blast!

I love that you feel like you have to explain why you justified spending 30 dollars on bowling, when most people probably wouldn't even give it a second thought--but it obviously looks like that 30 dollars was VERY well spent!
Love the pictures of your victory dance moves.
