Spare me!

"Mom, bowling balls is a hard game!"

That was AJ's summation of his first attempt at knocking down the white pins. On Saturday, we were invited to a party at a local bowling alley to celebrate his soccer (and soon-to-be hockey) teammate Owen's fifth birthday.

AJ had the benefit of bumpers blocking the gutters, plus an ultra light bowling ball. But it turns out what he needed most was a longer attention span. He lasted through about the fifth round before he lost all interest. That was fine with someone else in our family who was happy to fill in for her big brother.


Sydney's first attempt at bowling definitely required patience. It took the ball a loooooooooonnnnggggg time to finally reach the pins. But she was having fun, and of course that's what mattered.
Nevertheless, Team Kazel has some work to do before we join the pro circuit. Even with bumpers that made it impossible to throw a gutterball, our final score was a whopping 66.
