Bowling for Jesus

Wasn't that the name of some FCA or IV event? Sounds like that cheesiness we were all sucked into in college. But I did go bowling tonight with the kids from church. I had the best time with them. I honestly cannot remember the last time I went bowling. I explained to some of the gang that I had bowled on Tim's Nintendo Wii last Thanksgiving, but that's the last time I remembered "bowling." We had a battle of the sexes going with the winners having dinner bought for them. The winners also got to pick where we ate. We had a great turn-out with 16 girls and 13 guys. You know the guys whipped us. I greatly enjoyed my first game because I was on the lane with the middle school girls. We got to use the bumper guards. It took me FOREVER to get back into the swing of bowling. My second game was without bumper guards. It slowly came back to me but was by far one of my worst performances in years. I did have a good time with the girls in my lanes and then at dinner afterwards. I even stretched myself and talked to one of the "new" girls for quite a while too. It was fun. Krista brought the kids and we had Madison (who is 4) bowling on our lane with us. She seemed to be having a good time. She would lose interest in the ball before it got down the lane but turned away clapping every time (even if it didn't hit a single pin). Silas also bowled a few frames. He would roll the ball and then wave at it as it went down the lane. It was SO CUTE!

I'm very glad that we are "falling back" with the time tonight. I'm going to need the extra hour tonight. I watched bits and pieces of several movies today. For some reason, every time I sat for awhile I fell asleep. Not that I have any reason to be tired, right?! I did get my lawn done today (hopefully for the last time this season). I do feel somewhat caught up on my sleep. One channel had some of my favorite girl movies on today so I watched two of them. Another channel had the end of the world movies on today. I watched a little bit of two movies on that channel. Somewhat strange combination of movies today, but we'll not examine that too much seeing that I slept through most of them. Well I'm going to go take full advantage of my extra hour of sleep now.
