Bowling Fun

On Thursday February 13th, Michael's class went on a walking field trip to the bowling alley.  They have taken so many funds away that there are no buses anymore for field trips for the schools here, so we have to find ones that are close to the school, which is fine.  The kids were over the top excited!!!  We headed down to the bowling alley and off they went.  For a few it was the first time they ever went bowling.

Michael has a unique way of bowling, he shot-puts it.  His fingers aren't strong enough to hold the ball and it works for him right now.  :-)

Excited after a good bowl!!!!

They were able to go behind the scenes as well.  Michael is leading the way up front.

They were showed how the ball was returned and how the bowling pins were picked up so the other ones could be swept under.

Here they are showing them how the pins get set up for the next ten.  They all thought it was really cool!!!

The posse - Michael and some of his good friends in class and Mr Hector.

Then the teachers were so sweet and bought all the kids cookies.  Of course Michael had to have chocolate chip, but they are not as good as Mom's chocolate chip cookies  ;-)

Heading back to the school.  Luckily the rain held off.  About an thirty minutes later there was a complete downpour!  It was awful!  I was so thankful that we made it back to the school before that!  That night we frosted cupcakes,  had karate and a basketball game.  Michael earned his second stripe on his yellow belt and then AJ played a great game!!!  It has been a really busy week and of course valentine's day is tomorrow.
