Bowling with Cousins...

For a Family Home Evening in February we went with my sister Courtney, my bro in law Matt, and their 3 little darlings to do a tour of old Lehi.

Not really, I wish I could say we planned it that well and it was that thought out.  Honestly, we just wanted to have a fun night with the itty-bitties (not so itty anymore) and decided to go grab pizza and go bowling.  We went to the "Old but New Again" Purple Pig Pizza and then Jack and Jill's for bowling.  It was so fun - the cousins really do just love being together, and we are so lucky to live so close to them.

The place was pretty busy but it was fun & had loud, great music playing.  The kids seemed to have a good time...

I am not a good bowler!  This is something that I know about myself, I had several gutter balls and after about the 3rd one, Colby said, "Aunt Cole, maybe next time you should have bumpers too!" Ahh, kids and their honesty.  Even though I lost by A LOT, I still managed a smile!

Addison, actually beat ALL the kids with a whopping score of 87!  She beat me too, I think I barely broke 50.  She had a strike and a few spares, but the highlight of the night for her was her bowling shoes!  She went up to several strangers to show them her shoes.  Her head cocked to one side, one eye a little squinty and a smirk on her face, she would point to her shoes and while nodding say, "Mine, Mine, otay, Mine"  I love that at 2 years old she knows how important shoes are -- wise beyond her years!
