Bowling with Accountants

Many of you out there in Blogland are probably wondering what in the world happened to us? Well, it is that time of year when CPA's and accountants are living in their cubicals and are having dreams of numbers prancing through their heads. Yes, it is tax season. A wonderful time of year when Camille works hours upon hours, and Adam plays Xbox hours upon hours. This year, as a break, Camille's firm rented the local bowling alley and invited spouses and employees alike to come and have some fun at the Silver Spur Lanes.

Unfortunatley, the Silver Spur Lanes bowling alley is more like a smoker friendly gas station. We felt the white truck with the splashes of purple paint going up the sides were a nice touch. Camille really wanted to jump in the truck, run next door and get a tattoo, and then be back in time to roll a strike; however, she was unimpressed that there were no playboy bunny mud flaps, and decided to just stick with Adam.

The bowling Alley was full of accountants, many of which were dissappointed there was a computer to compute their scores instead of allowing them to add by hand. Adam was apprehensive about being the loudest person there. However, after some "liquid courage" and "social lubricants" many of the accountants proved to be much louder than Adam. They also proved to be better dancers, and better joke tellers...well, at least they laughed at their own jokes.

Camille had her fancy shoes on and was ready to roll. She bragged all week about how she was a professional. She was going to wear her wrist brace, bring a towel, and have a uniform...but she thought that might intimidate her coworkers. She was also so humble as to bowl a 75, just to make everyone feel better.
Adam was focused. He made sure to get a blue ball, and said it was his BYU ball. Adam thought it was fitting because his BYU ball was just like BYU...either they were good and crushed the weaker pins. Or sucked and ended up in the gutter.
The absolute best part of the Silver Spur was the overall theme of the place was "Outer Space." The carpet had planets, comets, and stars. They turned all the lights out and had dark lights on, with lazers blazing. Adam almost forgot he was sitting in the middle of Wyoming. For a second he thought a pointy earred fellow would appear and say "Bowl long, and prosper!"

Another thing we have done latley, well at least Adam, is shovel the driveway. It has been so snowy!! Ah, Wyoming Spring means a late winter. We woke up the other morning to some fresh snow. Adam took this picture from our porch...it was the most snow we have gotten all year. A week later we got over a foot in one night...We keep telling ourselves that we love Wyoming Springs...the flowers are beautiful this time of year.
