Bowling

We had NEVER gone bowling as a family. Isn't that sad? Chance and Coby were fantastic.

John got a strike and was very proud.
But not before I got one...thank you very much!John had amazing form...me...not so much.

After a lot of encouragement...Gunnar decided he would try to bowl, as well.

John helped him out.

The ball slowly went down the alley and he knocked down a ton of pins.
I am not sure if you can tell from the picture below but Gunnar had been crying hysterically because he tried to win a stuffed animal out of one of those machines where you use the giant claw to try and grab at the toy of your choice. Of course he never was able to grab a hold of one. He tried over and over again. We kept on telling him that you never win a toy from those machines...but he was determined. He eventually ran out of money so he just cried and cried.
Fun times!Coby wanted to get a strike so bad. On the very last frame of the very last game...
he did it!We had a great time.
Remind us never to let Gunnar play one of the claw machine games again.
