(Yes, it's Sunday and I'm posting. We don't have RE (Religious Education) on school holidays. I have two extra hours in my day.)
Sometime last week, I had to drive a big child to base. I took the younger ones and planned to go workout in the Family Fitness Room. They conned me into a game of bowling before the gym. It's only fair as the Family Fitness Room is simply a long room with workout machines and one end fenced off for children. Fun toys - but a glorified play pen nonetheless, and my children never used such.
The gentlemen watched Stacia bowl, and then said, "Wait, let me get her a cheater."
Stacia proudly yells, "I cheated, I cheated!" ::snort:: I believe she came in with the second highest score. The cheater works.
I missed Arielle's elation at a strike due to the fact that I no longer lug the Nikon around. ::snort:: I told her to "do it again". The improv class is proving beneficial.
Some of us take anything less than a strike very personally.
The same gentlemen with the cheater, brought out this huge pin to cheer Zander up. LOL

What a heart for children that gentleman must have had. What a wonderful family time.
I, too, make my children reenact lost photo-ops! LOL!
That sounds like a fun bowling place.
You all have sure been doing some fun things. You are making me feel quilty! I need to come up with something fun to do.
LOL The only place it's actually encouraged to "cheat"!
Sis: What a neat place you found to bowl with kids. I need to use the cheater also. :)
At out with Will/Sherri at Elmers for Dad's BD. They got him a neat coffee pot that does 1 cup and also does tea and H.Choclate.
Going to an antique and old car show with Nathaniel this afternoon.
love/prayers and keep on having fun.

LOVE the cheater! What a blast for Stacia. Now that's what *I* need to bowl!!!!
What fun! The cheater is cool...like the huge pin too.
LOL! I love the photos. Zander is so funny!
The cheater is great and what I would need IF I bowled. I learne a few years ago that I can't write for a week if I bowl. LOL
Debbie - say no to guilt. Remember, it was our New Year's "goal" to spend more fun family time....we had slipped into feeling that "family fun" - I mean REAL family fun would need to be when all 9 kids were here....and then well...we could "make do" when we had all 7 that live at home with us....but we've had to learn that whoever is home deserves us to be engaged....so you are probably simply seeing our pact to play more reflected in the blog. LOL
