Mom and Dad had a big treat for Henry and I this weekend: they took us bowling for the first time. When Mom had first suggested bowling a couple weeks ago, our response was to start crying. But we had no idea what we had been missing out on. First off, you get to wear these special shoes...

And then of course there's the actual bowling, which was so much fun. And I had a purple bowling ball!

Turns out I'm pretty good at bowling, especially when the lane has bumpers on both sides.. Yes, it takes the ball a long time to make it down the lane, but when it gets there, a lot of pins fall down. Henry had a great time too.

Here's a video of our bowling day.
We had such a blast, that we're already talking about going back very soon!
