Weekly Bowling Scores 11/15/08

Brent 113 / 119 / 134
Terrie 140 / 137 / 128
Just a few months ago,I never thought I would even come close to winning Brent. His scores seem to get lower and mine are getting better. My excuse for him is his arthritis in his knee and for some reason, he's not throwing the ball as smoothly as he used to. One of these days, I will take video. Yay for me that I have been slowly approaching his old average. Boo hoo for him that his average is slipping.

Weekly Bowling Scores 10/3-4/08 and Happy Birthday to ME

So Brent and I went bowling twice last week. Since it was my birthday, we decided not to do any work, just play. We went and got a quick bite to eat then went bowling. Then we went to Ikea and bought a new dresser. We attempted to put it together but there was a certain screw missing for one of the drawers. Needless to say, Home Depot doesn't carry that so now we have to see if we can get that one little piece from Ikea.

Friday Scores:
Brent: 126 / 152 / 116
Terrie: 162 / 127 / 147 YES, these scores are RIGHT. My BEST gave ever!

Saturday:
Brent: 147 / 139 / 120 / 174
Terrie: 90 / 128 / 104 / 116
Jenny: 00 / 119 / 114 / 122
Kim and Shawn joined us but when I asked for the score sheet, the attendant only printed our lane and not Kim's. Sorry Kim and Shawn.

Bowling

Brent's parents bought him a bowling ball when he was about 8 years old. They used to bowl all the time. I've never been good at bowling or any sports for that matter but I've always liked to bowl. For years, Brent has said, "we need to buy bowling balls for everyone so we can go more often". So... last Christmas, I finally bought myself a ball and shoes for me and Brent. We've been going every Saturday since then. I even bought a ball and shoes for Jenny so she could go with us. Kim decided to wait until after she has her baby before we get her a ball and shoes.

You'd think that after bowling once a week for 3 months, I'd get better. Not a chance! Jenny and I have been pretty close in our scores and Brent always beats us. He used to be pretty good, averaging around 175 and one game a few years ago, he even got 7 strikes in a row! Since his shoulder surgery last year, his balance is a little off. He's been averaging about 145. Friday, Brent and I went bowling. On our second game, I was ahead every single frame. I thought this was my day but low and behold, Brent got three strikes in the 10th frame and beat me by 3 pins! He just couldn't let me have my glory! Today we went with Jenny, her family and Kim and her family and guess what? Jenny beat Brent by 1 pin. I guess she may be getting better! Brent was happy for her, really. And Jach and Aubrey beat me!
