Bowling

Today we headed down to Dart Bowl for our friend, Dara's 30th birthday party. It was a family event so we all brought our kids along. There were 4 preschoolers and 2 babies so it was a great time for all.

It was Ava's 1st time bowling and she loved it. Darren and I are super excited because that means we can take her bowling more often. Personally, I can't wait until she can use an 8 lb ball so she can use my old bowling ball...one of the best gifts I ever got...only wished it were heavier so I could still use it.

Watching her ball bounce off the bumpers and head to the pins. I actually think 2 balls might be going since one was stuck...that happened a lot on the kid lane that night.

Ava & Sydnee high fiving one of the guys. (Side note here: Ava recently has been freaked out by men in general so we were super surprised to see her high-fiving guys at the bowling alley. I'm guessing it's because she was having so much fun)
