Bowling Partay!

Oh yes! It was as fun as it sounds! I often feel like I'm the one always being given to and invited places but I'm never giving back or hosting get-togethers so I finally cooked something up. Mom bought extra Ace's Bowling coupons just for me! Isn't she sweet? ;) So I could invite some friendses! I wanted to invite them all! But I could only pick four so finally I sent out invites to my dear friends Danielle, Kristen, Molly and Esther. The time was set for 12:30pm and we were gonna have pizza for lunch and everything! Funses!

And guess what else??? Mom let me drive ALL the way to Montgomery! For the first time in about 2 and 1/2 years since I got my permit! I also got to run some errands so I got practice in changing lanes, pulling through drive thrus, and scaring Mom hehe. Btw, did I mention I was doing all this in a 15 passenger van? I know, I'm awesome ;) LOL But Mom said I did good and I felt really confident, obviously since she had to keep telling me to slow down ;)

So we got to the Bowling Ally on time and Danielle and her mom were the first to arrive! We sat around and talked for a little while and then headed to the pool room to play while we waited on the others. Danielle said she stunk at pool and I know I do but she turned out pretty good! Of course I blame it on distraction of looking for the other girls ;) Esther and her mum were the next to arrive just as Danielle shot her last ball in. Yeah, she won :P We chit chatted ab it and then Molly popped in with her mum! Not long after Kristen swept in with her mom. So we all tittered and chattered while the moms congregated in the corner in their own circle ;) Us girls got all caught up first so we were more than ready when the moms finally broke away haha. 
We got lane 15 and started the first game. I couldn't believe how good I was at first! I got a strike on my 2cd turn! I think.... Anyway I guess it was the adrenaline of excitement ;) Danielle got in there and just blew everything out of the water lol! She could swing that ball, just sayin :D Kristen is so gentle and soft that she rolled the ball so softly I wasn't sure it would hit anything but she rolled it so straight!! We all tried rolling like her but I guess only Kristen could perfect it :D Esther looked like a cutie from the 50's with her full white skirt and the bowling shoes :D She's always so pretty :) Molly was soooo cute with what I call her "foot thing". You know how you're supposed to get your right leg out of the way and so you like curl it behind you? Well Molly would just do her foot and it was just the cutest little pose! haha! Anyway, everyone was better than I was at bowling lol but we all weren't the absolute best. So I called us the Loser League haha! Nah, we weren't that bad. But Danielle was the only won who broke 100 so I guess you can figure out who won the first game ;)
The second game we were all worse. Weird I know. From the second frame for like 8 frames I got zero!!! I was stuck at a 6 for over half the game! :P Anyway, Danielle won again and Molly and Kristen tied for second I think. Or maybe it was the third game we played that they tied. Anyway, Danielle won all three LOL Actually 2 and 1/2 games cuz while we were in the middle of taking turns rolling the 15 lb ball the game cut off and our two hours were up :(

So the moms kept on chatting while us girls trooped over to the pool room and played some more pool. Oh! We also tried the Boxer machine! I was the most powerful at about 940 I think (children, it was NOT from spinach ;) hahaha Just go milk your cows lol). Which I was the second smallest girl there I think so I was surprised! Molly wanted to try the dart board so I lent her 50 cents and we never figured the stupid machine out so I joke around and teased Molly that she owes me 50 cents hehehe ;) She's so fun to tease :D  Ohhh! Then there was the pinball machine and I won't even go into that hahaha. The girls know what I'm talking about ;)

Ah but finally the fun had to end :( Though we had to drop Kristen off at her house so we got to visit a little longer :) That was fun. Then from Wal-Mart I drove home. After stopping by Russell Do-It where I got my cowgirl hat!!! Whoo hoo! I'm authentic now! You know what I gotta do now? Dress up - gotta get me some cowgirl boots - and go saddle up Latte hahaha!!! (For those of you who don't know, Latte is one of our cows lol)

Anyway, so thank you for reading and thanks girls for coming to the bowling party! I had a "ball" ;) he.he.he

Below are some pics of our funness :D

Tribute to Magnificent Molly!

So yesterday I went to a birthday party at the park for my awesome friend, Molly! Her Sweet 16th. Want to know how we met? No? Well I'll tell you anyway...
It all started last summer when I was auditioning for a Play. See, we have a friend who's a gifted dancer and director and she's written and organized Plays for the past several years. So this would be my 2cd Play with her. When I got the cast list I found that I had gotten the part of Zibiah, an over-the-top and very rude and selfish mother. *sigh* I know, it's hard imagining me that way but... Haha, I'm KIDDING ;) Anyway, I realized that I would be splitting the part with a girl named Molly. I was like, "What? How's that possible?" Well when the 1st practice came around I found out. Since there would be two practices a week and three performance nights, Molly and I would each have one practice a week and then she'd get two of the performance nights, and I'd get one. So needless to say I was a little disappointed. But then I met Molly. Actually our "daughter" (in the Play) introduced us ;) And I immediately liked her. She was so sweet and friendly, seemed a tad bit nervous like me. But as the practices proceeded we warmed up very quickly and I didn't mind sharing the performance nights with her at all! So if we had never split our character, I would never have made such an awesome friend! Or we might have eventually met and all that, but working together and goofing off together, we really got close. Now we call each other, "My Other Self" ;)
So, that's the background story! It'd be about a year that I've known her now and I was very pleased to be invited to her party :) I knew there'd be Ultimate Frisbee going on but decided I wouldn't play that day - which did indeed shock a few of my friends haha. I love to play it, but I'm just soooo terrible! And I have no one to practice with at home so I really don't get better :P Otherwise I'd be awesome at it haha, jk ;) Anyway, so I decided to get "prettified" and be girly for once. That was fun too. We played a few card games and did plenty of chit-chatting and socializing. Played a few heated games of Spoons and I found I'm terrible at that too! :P I just needed a warm-up is all *sniff*. Anyway, haha, we had pizza and this AMAZING cookie/cake that was just to DIE for. Also I got to catch up with all my buddies that I hadn't seen in over 6 months, since last fall. Wow...was it really that long??? That's wrong. It's a SIN to stay away from friends that long! Well anyway, me and my "baby sister" - she's fourteen now but I've known her since she was five ;) - got to catch up a lot which I really, really enjoyed.
Then we had to deal with the crazy boys that had come :P Two of them decided it'd be "fun" to leap over the picnic tables and scare us girls half to death. Of course I announced that if they fell and killed themselves I'd laugh - nooo, really  I'd cry but you don't tell THEM that! Then they pulled a few prank phone calls which was hilarious to watch and listen to ;) Oh, and how could I forget the War of Junk? Catapulting napkin balls and leftover cookie from spoons and then tossing water bottles and empty coke cans at each other. One poor guy got hit in the head/face three times! Of course that didn't daunt him at all. He's too crazy to back off in a losing battle ;)
Around dusk us girls went to go sit in the grass and sing while Molly played her awesome guitar - which, btw girl, you never showed me how to play ONE chord! :'( waahhh!!! I'm kidding, Molly ;) I <3 you. Then the crazy guys decided to play frisbee over our heads but we ignored them and they finally found something else to do ;) The bugs weren't too too bad but when I had ants crawling all over my skirt, and I'm pretty tolerant of bugs, I decided to get up and go get another piece of cookie! I felt awful because then the parents started packing up and the guys came back from playing frisbee in the "proper" place and the girls headed back and everybody started leaving!!!! I was like NOOOO! Ah, but I guess good times must end huh? Well not for me! Because I got to go home with the birthday girl!
We ate a little more cookie - yeah we're bad ;) - and chit-chatted for awhile before Molly and I got on her Wii. Let me tell you what I am soooo glad none of y'all, save Molly, were there cuz I. was. AWFUL! Haha, hilariously so. When I got tired of trying to figure Nintendo out, Molly put on Just Dance and that was even more funny! We sure burned off that cookie and pizza! Or not ;) Of course I was getting mad at the stupid thing because see, you get points if you swing your arms this way and that the way they do on the TV but I mean gee! How hard is it to throw your hands up and back down? All I got was "ok's" and X's  while Molly's over there rackin' up points getting a bunch of "prefects" :P LOL I could've won AFV though, I'm surprised that show doesn't have hardly any videos of Wii "incidents" haha. But then my Mommy came to pick me up and after a bit more chit-chat we finally left. It was a fun fun day :)
So Molly, here is my post, dedicated to you, my comic-superhero-partner-other-self ;) I <3 you girl!
