Bowling

So today i was with my dad and we went bowling with grandma and grandpa, Nathan and Brennan. We had so much fun.

First we got our names put on the list and it was going to be a ten min wait so dad and grandma pitched in so we could play games with tokens. So we spent the first 6 tokens like that, but most of us won a few tickets so dad gives us 5 more tokens. We spend then fast again and a lot more tickets were added. grandma gave in 4 more tokens to each of us. We spent it fast but just in time for us to bowl. Well all the kids got a lot of tickets.

So now me are bowling for a few turns each when Nathan, Brennan , and Jonathon are getting bored between turns. So Nathan has a brilliant idea to look for tokens on the ground because grandma and Dad weren't going to give any more money to get tokens.Well Nathan find 8 tokens right off the bat and gets more tickets(all together we have about 300-400 tickets). Well Nathan and Jonathon keep finding more and more tokens, getting more and more tickets. Well the bowling games were coming to an end and they found 2 more tokens with those 2 tokens they get 99 tickets out of one game. So in the end we split the tokens evenly and the 4 kids(including me) get 127 tickets to spend on a prize. Pretty neat concidering about 1/3 of the tickets were from non-paid for tokens.

Ok, now I will talk about the bowling not all the games. Well my first two turns I had 11 points. everyone was ahead of me except I think Grandpa had 10. Well my next two turns i get strikes. i was feeling really proud of myself. NOT for LONG. next 5 balls gutter. So good feeling gone, I know right. Well after the 5 gutter balls my next one was a stike. So then we were joking with me its all or nothing. Guess what happened next. YUP, ANOTHER gutter ball. and then i was getting some pins after that until the last frame then ANOTHER gutter ball, but then i hit 9 pins my final score for that game was 80 some thing.

Well Dad was in the lead the whole time all of the 1 1/2 games we played Brennan was doing pretty good i think he was second place on the half game. Grandpa couldn't get over his curve ball so it wasn't a very good round of games for grandpa. He did have fun though. We all had fun. Grandma got a few spares and a strike or so.

Oh ya, I DID NOT HAVE bumpers. So I think thats a great accomplishment for doing that.
I Hope we can do that again some time it was way fun. Maybe more people can come.
