This weekend, at the bowling alley, we had the Diva's sixth birthday party.*
The Diva is in pink, natch.
The Boy amused himself at the alley as best he could. Also, he bowled.
The Boy and his friend C, with the special ball ramp thingy they let kids use.
At one point, I looked over and the By had his entire head down in the ball return. If we can keep him from putting an eye out (his eye or someone else's) before he turns 10, I will be completely amazed.
A good time was had by all of the shorter people. Scott and I didn't have a bad time, mind you, but it was exhausting.
Perhaps we would have been rejuvenated had we stopped to use the Lustre King Custom Ball Conditioner. It restores original lustre, you know.

* Her actual birthday is Thursday, which is her first day of summer vacation, which seems like present enough.

I feel for you. I needed my lustre restored after the Day Out with Thomas, and I only had charge of one kid.
I know it's horrible, but I am cracking up over the idea of the boy with his head in the ball return. I'm just that sick.

Not sick. We cracked up, too. If nothing else, the Dude keeps us perennially amused.

That's the end of the gun you don't want to be on, little boy.
Happy birthday, Diva!
