Guest Post: Hope and Bowling

Hi, everyone-- it's Hope again!  Our family really loves to go bowling.  My favorite thing to do when we go bowling is dance to the loud music, not to mention I'm pretty good at it! 

The balls are heavy so it is hard for me to pick them up and roll them, but I still rock!
 
  Making shadow puppets is one of the BEST things about bowling!
 Since the ball is so heavy I have to hold on to it tight so I don't throw it backwards.  I've done that a couple of times!
It is VERY important to take a dance break while you are bowling.
P.S.  It's true.  
 Goodbye!  I'll see you again soon! --Hope

    I love bowling! I'm not very good at it though, maybe it's because I never took a dance break. :)
    Love and Turtledoves,

    Eee I love bowling too! I promise you will still love it years from now, too! The dance breaks are probably the best part, and I also really love glow-in-the-dark bowling!

    Hope, you are the coolest girl around!!! I teach dance to some girls your age and we always get talking about our favorite music and books! It's very inspiring and helps us express ourselves easier when we dance. What are your favorite songs and books right now?
