On a ROLL. Literally!

My son's been doing really well in his bowling league the past few weeks. His team is in last place, but he has been beating his average, smiling and having fun. This past weekend he bowled a 92, 138 and 84. His average right now is 80. I'm so happy for him, because he's actually enjoying bowling.

This past weekend his head needed to be popped as he was dancing around saying he had the highest score at one point, on his team. Remember this is a kid who the past year has always had the worst score. I put him in his place! Well the best that I could, for a kid who has as much attitude as his Mother.

So The BF and I decided we are going to get him his own bowling ball for Christmas. We are going to get him a 10lb Transformers bowling ball! We are not going to have the holes drilled until he learns to bowl with his fingers in the hole. Right now he just pushes the ball off his chest. Whatever works, I don't care as long as he's having fun!

Sorry for the craptastic photo of his final scores of the first two games. LOL I can't wait to post pictures of the bowling ball.

Man I wish my bowling average was an 80. I think I am the worst bowler in the world. I always make them put the safety bumpers on so I can at least bowl a 55!!!

Allison said...

Fun who wouldn't love a new bowling ball. I loved to go bowling when I was younger

Amy said...

How much fun is that! I am so happy for him! It is good that he is just trying to beat his score and not mad because his team isn't first. Good job, Mom.
