Bowling anyone?

On Labor Day we went to the new bowling alley in Pasadena, 300. It's supposed to take bowling to a new level and make it more of a sophisticated night club experience. (just what we are looking for!) Dave and Brittany came along and it ended up being a lot of fun.

You could choose the theme for the scoreboard screen. Andrew chose Halloween.
This bowling thing shouldn't be too difficult when you're 8 months pregnant, right?
Okay, so it ended up being a lot more difficult than I thought it would be. I couldn't lean forward to let the ball go, so I basically had to throw it from standing straight up. It would make a pretty loud "bang" as it hit and dented the ground. I later figured out if I lunged forward enough I could do it a little better, but then I was scared of falling on the ground in a straddled position.
Brittany did a great job.
Check out this nice action shot of Dave.
Andrew learned all about bowling from playing on the wii.
I think for being pregnant I did pretty good! And I guess all of Andrew's wii playing really paid off. Looks like Dave needs to dust off his bowling shoes and ball!


It was a lot of fun!

Great posting. Bowling sounds like a great way to go into labor.

I remember my annual work holiday bowling party. I was about a week from my due date and actually tried it. Yeah right! I felt like I was going to tip over too. That's good you stuck with it and finished all 10 frames.

We went bowling with my cousin the night his wife went into labor. I think the bowling put her over the top. Remember this in case no baby has arrived by October 2. You look great, Diane!!
