Bowling Shoes Rock the House


The big WINNER!

Umm order of scores...Melinda, Me, Jon, Spence.

Last Tuesday Jon and I went bowling with Spencer and Melinda.  Bowling is always a funny "sport" to me.  It makes about as much sense as golfing does.  Throw or hit the ball, retrieve, and do it again.  Does that sound like a little like a dog fetching a bone anyone else?  I guess I just go bowling for different reasons than others might...which doesn't surprise me.  I love the music at the bowling alley and the shoes are to die for.  If I wasn't so honest I would wear a pair out like I did when I was younger.  I think they are beautiful...that is if you don't think about the fact that they have been on everyone and their dogs feet.  That kind of freaks me out.  Not enough to stop me from coveting them every time I go.  I love finding the perfect ball...the color and fit.  It is kind of like shopping without having to spend any money.  Every time I pick a bowling ball, I take my time and choose wisely.  Once I start playing I second guess myself and try every ball on the rack.  I am starting to think I have ADHD.  I don't mind what my score ends up to be, (ask Melinda).  I just love throwing it in all different ways.  NOW lets compare my style of bowling to Melinda.  She strategically picks her ball.  She takes her time standing in the proper position on the lane.  Gracefully she glides down the arrows until she lets the ball fly.  Roll, Roll, Roll.....STRIKE!  EVERY TIME!  162 was her score!  I don't even know if I broke a double digit.  Jon did really well, and Spencer.....I am pretty sure he hit the pins without even rolling the ball!  He "rolled" it SO fast it scared me.  We had a great time as usual and had some laughs.  We took some photo booth pictures that turned out really fun.  Some weren't blogable :)  I have other pictures that I can't get to work yet because Kinley has my camera connector in France, so this will have to do for now!
