Spring Break Day 4

We gave JR the choice of going bowling or going to the movies tonight. It was a tough decision which involved throwing himself dramatically on the floor about the difficulty of choosing, but in the end he decided on bowling. Durango doesn't actually have a bowling alley, so we drove out to the Sky Ute Casino. (BTW, they have the cleanest, nicest, nonsmoking-est bowling alley I have ever been in.) I was excited to bowl because I knew we'd have to get bumpers for JR, and I'm a halfway decent bowler with bumpers. Unfortunately this place is so nice and new that you program into the computer which bowlers need bumpers and which don't. And with Jason at the control panel, I didn't get bumpers! Needless to say, both Jason and JR beat the pants off me. Jason actually looked at me one time and said, "I thought you knew how to bowl." The babies did an okay job of watching. Reed played peek-a-boo with a little girl in the next lane, while Kyle mainly ate Cheerios. Although both couldn't seem to understand why they weren't getting to play too!

Sounds like bowling was a fun choice. A blind student once beat me in a bowling class in college. MR

Did Jason forget that bumpers are for girls too? He was just afraid to get beat. Sounds like a fun day. BTW, the picture of JR is one of the best I have seen, the forced smile is turned to almost a natural one which seems almost impossible to catch on camera these days.
