They Said What?!

For those of you who are not on Facebook, you've missed out on some of my "quote of the day" posts (something said by one of the girls).  I decided to make a compilation of these quotes for you.

"Will you scratch my itchy butt?" - Kaycie

"but i've been 4 for a long, long time! i want to be 5!" - Janae

"I love my uncle Tyler! I love my uncle Tyler! I love Tyler!"  - Janae

"i had lots and lots of fun but i was too sad to play. i missed you." - Janae

"mommy, you need to call me Cinderella" - Kaycie

"I like all my new friends!" - Janae - she's referring to all the kids at preschool - the ones she hasn't even met yet :o)

"they're so good I could kick myself!" - Allyson

"I may be short, but I'm smart and in the 2nd grade." - Allyson - she also went on to say that she's the shortest one in her class, but then again, she's always been :o)

Our Friday Night Adventure

At the beginning of Christmas break, Allyson brought home a paper from a local bowling alley that gave every school aged child one free game of bowling each day during their vacation.  The girls had been practically begging the whole break to go bowling and since it expired on Friday, we decided to take advantage of it.

The alley was busier than I expected it to be, but it appeared a lot of families were doing the exact same thing we were.  One great thing was that when we were at the desk, the attendant let me fill out cards for Janae and Kaycie and they too got free games :o)  Our total price for bowling 2 games each plus shoe rental was $12.00!  Can't beat that!!

Normally you just pay for shoe rental first then pay at the end for how many games you bowl, but this time we had to tell them how many games we were going to bowl.  Since we've only been bowling once before and that was at Allyson's birthday last year, we weren't quite sure how many, so Rodney said two games.  It ended up that one game would have been plenty.  We now know that it takes right at about one hour for all of us to bowl one game - meaning we were there for two hours :o)

Here are just a few pictures.

Allyson and Janae watching me help Kaycie bowl.

Janae's turn.  Rodney was helping her for a little while, but it didn't take long before Janae did not want any help at all.

 Allyson's turn.  I think this was her highlight of the break.  She also told me that bowling is her favorite sport.
