Family Bowling

In the Wagoner family, everyone can bowl.....except me. My goal for each game is to break 100 , or at least get in the 90's, but 80 is kinda close to 90, right? Somehow my parents took my brothers bowling a lot more than me. And so, they are very very good. They often invite me along just becasue I'm family, and they don't want to leave me out, but I am NEVER a factor in the competition. Thankfully, I married a man who is a little better at bowling than I, but on a bad day, I can beat him....which is all that matters to me. Since we have been here, we have yet to go bowling . Sometimes, in OKC, we would go bowling as a family and have a great time using the bumpers. (I always score over 100 when we use those) Thursday night we decided to check out the local bowling place. It was small, only 5 lanes, and it was empty. Perfect. For $12 we got to bowl for an hour and had shoes too. It was great fun. However, there were no bumpers. So, my kids are having to learn how to bowl for real....which is not a bad thing.
As you can see in all of these pictures, our form is not great yet, but we will work on it. In fact, we were just trying to get the ball to go straight down the lane and not end in the gutter every time. But it was still a lot of fun. The locals all thought we were great to watch and gathered around the glass wall to watch us.

Because frankly.....we all look a little odd when we bowl. Rob took all the great action shots, this last one was my attempt to "capture" his bowling moment. Which as you can see, I got his arm covering his face. :)

Happy Bowling....
