blurry cell phone pictures- bowling

a couple of our friends invited us out on a play date/bowling a few days ago. we found out that if you go in the morning, they have $1 games! i'm all about getting a good bargain, so of course i was thrilled. plus some added perks are 1) they keep the real lights on (not creepy "what's that on your jeans?" black lights), 2) they keep the music at a reasonable volume (do i sound like i'm 100 years old yet? wait for it...), and 3) you aren't surrounded by obnoxious teenagers. instead you're in a relatively deserted bowling alley (aside from the occasional die hard, bring my own shoes, ball, sweat bands, fingerless gloves, and ball buffer guys) where you can actually see and hear your friends. it was great! 

Roo loved the colorful bowling balls.

she was particularly interested in the "hand dryer"(?) on the ball return.  

 so was her friend, Hudson. they may or may not have had a shoving match or two over who got to hover over it. in the end, Hudson was a gentleman and let her have it. 

 i think i made those bowling shoes look good. 

and this is Ruby licking a bowling ball. yum.
