Fathers day




Happy fathers day my friends. We had gone to a bowling alley to celebrate fathers day today. I am a very competitive person. Unfortunately, I woke up with a neck sprain this morning and therefore could not bowl. We had 3 teams who played. That's my older son in the first picture. My friends wanted me to play too. So I obliged. My right side was hurting so badly. I used my left hand as you can see in the second picture.  I know, I was not dressed appropriately. Left hand proved to be lucky for me. All but one pin was left to fall. Not bad for playing only one ball. I actually brought the score up for a little girl. (I was playing for her). Every time someone scored a strike, we decided to buy a plate of french fries and share. The fries proved to be motivational. Someone decided to kick it up a notch by adding pepper and ketchup to the fries. Women who were initially conscious of taking in too many calories, soon gave in to the finger licking good fries. The dad's won both the rounds of the game. That was the idea anyway. I am sure they felt good about it. The whole macho thing. It was now time for dinner. We decided to go to a pizza buffet place. "Kids heaven". Enjoyed some great pizza and conversation with all our dear friends. Plans for a beach trip was being materialized. So, watch this space for that experience. It will be interesting to say the least.
