Pre-Birthday Bowling Party

Trying to find a time to celebrate any occasion that includes the whole family doesn't always mean it falls on the actual date of the event.

Today we were able to celebrate Michael's birthday with a family get together for bowling. I started the game tripping over my feet and falling as I released the ball. Believe it or not, I got a strike. Already I can feel the muscles in my body regretting this activity.

I won the first game but no one could compete with Michael's 4 consecutive strike ending in the second game. Melissa jumped in for a few frames and got 2 strikes in a row. Teresa, Jamie and Brandon just shook their heads at our competitiveness. Happy pre-Birthday, Michael. There's still lunch on Saturday.
