Plan B-owling

Last week, over the long weekend, Brian and I planned one day on taking Nolan to the splash pad park in Niceville and eating lunch there. The next morning the sun was shining as we ate breakfast. The sunbeams spilled into the kitchen as I packed our picnic lunch. The sun was shining while we got dressed and ready to go. The clouds appeared about the time we were getting into the car. We were driving for all of 5 minutes when the lightening and thunder started. So, we drove back home and got 3 pairs of socks and headed to the bowling alley. We bowled a totally non-competitive game. I say that because Brian beat me, but had I won, it would have been deemed fierce competition. As it stands, it was just a "friendly" game! When we were finished the rain had stopped, so we stopped at the nearest park and ate, then threw some rocks into the river and then ended with a trip to Wendy's for a frozen delight. Ohhh yeah. And the rain even stayed away for some swimming after Nolan's nap!
Nolan got to try out his new umbrella. Who knew when I bought this that we'd get so many opportunities to use it?

Watching his ball go. After awhile he caught on and would say (regardless of it's direction), "Look, that one's right down the middle!"

Avery had a blast bowling. Looks like Nolan did too. :)
