"Leg Up!"



We went bowling about a week ago as a family and we were so impressed with Sophie's natural talent for the art of bowling. Check out this scoreboard. "S" is for Sophie.



And now I'm turning this post over to Sophie so she share her bowling tips with you.

First, you use one of these thingies and a pair of gutters.
When your pretty orange ball comes back, be ready for it!


When your Dad tries to help you carry it, tell him to "go away!"

Last but definitely not least, you have to end each turn with a pretty leg lift like so:

Also make sure to have a pretty smile like this so nobody hates you for being so awesome.

    Cute!
    I saw a cute Fisher Price Easter Little People set in the Easter isle at Target. Now when I see Little People, I think of her.

    My story is shameful after seeing Sophie's score. I could definitely learn a thing or two from her. The leg kick thing...awesome! Only someone with great talent can do that. And the smile at the end of each bowl...she has that down to a "t!" She's so cute.

    Wow! I am so impressed Sophie! You did so great! She look so cute in all of those pictures. She could even give Grant a run for his money and he was in a bowling league :). haha bowling league, too funny.

    That is too funny! My favorite is the leg lift at the end. Can't bowl properly without a leg lift ... :)

    Wow Kathrine... long time. I've actually thought of you a whole bunch of times. Sounds and looks like you have done really well. Remind your husband he is really lucky. Jackie really likes your blogs. I think you and Jackie would really like each other. I would love to catch up with you.

    Hey Katherine, it's Jackie. When I first looked at your blog I was saying "Oh...I love that picture....oh that is so cute...Oh that looks good to eat!" Chris then came into the room and said that I would probably like you and I said "Not probably....I DO like her!"

    With that said, when are you guys going to take a rip out here to visit? We would come there but...well... you know.

    p.s. your kids are really cute and thanks for the nice compliment about my belly. I truly thought I would be 3 times this size by now.

Speaking of movie...I liked the clip. Nice! Anyway, How lucky to go on a cruise. Ooops....a child out of bed. Toodles. Hope all is well.
