4th of July

This year to celebrate Independence Day I went to a party at a friend's house, which was close enough to the BYU stadium to hear and see the Stadium of Fire! We even got to enjoy a small fireworks display on the street in front of the house, which was mostly lit by neighbor children. A fun time was had by all, but I'm not sure the car parked next to our little firework show will ever be the same.

Birthday Bowling

Last month for my birthday I had a blast Starburst Bowling with a bunch of friends. If you've never experienced Starburst Bowling, I highly recommend it. I'm a terrible bowler, so this is the perfect way to make bowling fun for those of us who think it is a major accomplishment to break 100 on the scoreboard. Just take a bag of Starbursts and a bunch of friends to the bowling alley, get the gutter bumpers (they're the BEST!), and draw a Starburst out of the bag to determine your bowling approach.

Yellow: throw the ball in the normal fashion, but with your non-dominant hand
Red: backwards granny roll (stand with your back toward the pins, bend over and push the ball between your legs)
Orange: Fred Flintstone Twinkle Toes approach
Pink: lay on your stomach and push the ball (my personal fave!)
