Birthday Bowling!!

I have always been a fan of smaller, more intimate birthday celebrations with just family. I can concentrate on making sure my kids are having fun versus whoever I invited:) I usually do a big party on their first birthdays and then do activities that I know are my kids favorite for the years after. This year, my mom and I took Makenna and Jordyn to see Princess and the Frog at the movie theater the day before her birthday. She was so excited and since it is at the dollar theater, I didn't feel bad about taking my sometimes noisy two year old as well:) Then on her day, we took her bowling. This is her absolute favorite!! She was literally jumping up and down. Grandma and Papa and Uncle Joe were able to come as well. We missed Grandma M. but hope she is feeling better!!
Jordyn was old enough to bowl this time as well. The two sisters had a great time together!!

Daddy played as well.....Mommy already hurts enough so I skipped out on this time:)

Doing a happy dance!


Having a great time!!

Give Papa a break. That was the first time that he has bowled for a long long time. They need to let us old people use Jordyn's thing that you roll the ball down. Uncle Joe was our comic relief. Although I wouldn't think it was too funny if I was the one who fell down. Poor Monkey Joe hit his ankle with the ball too. OUCH! We had a good time watching the girls.
