Ugh. Mother Nature complicated the Summer of Fun this morning by deciding to stop raining and then drizzle, and then stop, and then sprinkle. So, in my wisdom (lack), we decided to brave Deanna Rose anyway and passed along the word to the fellow moms. But by the time we got to Overland Park, it was raining, and I had figured out that mucking through the animal pens wouldn't be fun even if the rain stopped. Several moms had already cancelled, but the brave few that showed up made an emergency detour to the closets bowling alley.
Most of the kids had never bowled, I think, so that turned out to be fun. The alley gave us this special ramp thing that the younger kids could use to speed up the process. That was a big help, because several of the girls sent balls down the lane at about -5 miles per hour prior to the help. Carter and Sam, future engineers, examined the ramp from all angles to figure out its magical power. The little guys got bored waiting for their turn, but it was good practice and everyone generally did great! We stopped at McDonald's afterwards for grub on the way home.
Bowling excitement!
