We had Sam's birthday party yesterday afternoon at a pizza and bowling place nearby. They do candlepin bowling (small pin) which is unique to this area of the country. I found this out when I went to college in Florida and tried bowling with regular size bowling balls. I don't have many photos, the kids were facing the pins most of the time, but they all seemed to have a good time, and only a few fingers got smashed ; ). Most of the bowling balls also stayed close to the floor unlike other kiddie bowling parties that I've been too!

| Birthday cake time. Vivian sat front and center, luckily Sam didn't notice. |
