This year for his birthday, Ben wanted to play bowling, so we booked a bowling party at the local Tenpin bowling. He invited 7 other friends, which made 10 of them altogether and they all had a couple of games of bowling each, using two lanes. During the bowling, our party host gave them all sweets and made balloon guns and swords for them. They also had some nice food midway through the 2 hours of bowling, which they all mostly scoffed. It was mostly good fun apart from some of the boys getting rather too excited and deciding to mess around and fight a bit. Ben also managed to drop the heaviest bowling ball on his big toe (as he wasn’t concentrating properly!) so ended up crying his eyes out as it must have hurt a lot! The nail on his big toe has since gone a bit black. It was a fun couple of hours though, and all the boys that attended seemed to enjoy it all. Thanks to everyone that came and got Ben a present.<\/p>\n
