Tonight we went on a date with the older two. We had Uncle Arland and Auntie Naomi put Joseph to bed and hang out at home while we were gone. I think the older two really enjoyed having us all to themselves for a night. They were pretty excited to try out bowling and did super well!
My camera didn't quite capture the way Hyrum would jump for joy at every pin he knocked over. We had the bumpers for the two kids and it was a riot. I haven't laughed that hard in a really long time. Hyrum would line up to roll his ball and then pause to watch the next ball rolling in. Finally he would throw it and while it slowly made its way towards the pins he would glance down the alley and check out what everyone else was doing. Sometimes when he knew it wasn't going to hit anything he would get all nervous and put both his arms behind his head while he watched. Other times he would get pretty into it and start pointing and calling out to his ball hoping it would help change the direction. He did a potty dance for the first few throws. I said, "Ya know, if you go potty, you might be better!" And he replied, "I already AM better!" I had to laugh because he was true, his score almost doubled mine!
Camilla was also pretty great! Her score almost rivaled Daddy's. She liked to bowl backwards between her legs. She loved passing the balls out to everyone when it was their turn and was a great cheerleader. I got probably the worst bowling score ever and she came up and patted me on the back and said, "It's okay, Mom. It's just 'cause you're pregnant..."
Love this girl!
Daddy got a ton of spares and strikes! It was super fun!
Until next time bowling alley!
