Bowl For A Buck

Hello there. Here are some pictures as promised.

But first, I need to do some prefacing. : )

So every year, CCU2theWorld, the mission organization at my university, does an awarenes event called Bowl For A Buck. Basically, we rent out a bowling alley, fill it with way to many people, and bowl like crazy. Each missions team has two lanes or so and they sell tickets for their lanes. The teams decorate and dress all crazy so as to represent their country and culture and it is just an all around crazy night. We chose to go as Mayan warriors with facepaint, jungle hair, and bright colors. Prepare yourself. : )

The following pictures are worth a zillion words. But because some of them are a little odd, I'll give you some captions for reference. Just know we had a wonderful time bonding and hanging out as a team. And we used a lot of soap and water as well as bottles of conditioner later that night.

To the pics!

This would be the girls, minus Shaylee and Lindsay, and me becuase I am behind the camera. From left to right its Sarah, Katelyn, Izzy, Michelle, and Arika. Great looking bunch, huh?



And here are the boys, giving us their serious faces.Thats Shane on the left with Teddy in the middle and Morgan on the right. So great. That's really all I have to say to that one.

Michelle putting her hair-teasing expertise to great use. We had some HUGE hair that night. :)


Here is Izzy painting Teddy's face. I will certianly remember how great she is with a paintbrush as I am sure that will come in handy later. She did a wonderful job with all the paint.






Check out that paint job on her head dress that she made from scratch! Amazing, right? So amazing!


And yes, we did actually get to the bowling at some point here are a couple shots of that.


Teddy getting it.

... and Morgan...


.... and there's Shane and Arika teaming up...


... and Morgan with his sweet poncho and Teddy with his perfect form... : )

Teddy here is providing us with a great transition...

So, about this time, its getting late and most people have gathered to watch the Bowl-off that is happening two lanes over and my team has decided that normal bowling is just that, normal, and we being not normal began to resort to some trick shots. As we stole attention away from the real competition, we deffinitely should have gotten a prize for most entertaining.  Prepare yourself, this team is pretty comfortable with eachother...

We'll start off small with Arika's first trick shot...


Classic.

And then we step is up a bit and see how much we trust eachother as a team...


Yup, thats a lot of trust there, Morgan.

And then things just get crazier and crazier from here.


Yup. That happened.

So did this one...

I told you we were comfortable with eachother...

and side note: apparantly the owners of the bowling alley made a comment about how much fun we could all have sober. I am glad we could be good whitnesses and all have so much fun wihtout booze. :)

But yes, it was a crazy, CRAZY night as I am sure you can tell. It was a wonderful time to spend as a team and with our friends. We didn't win any of the prizes but we gained some great memories. Aww!


Stay posted for more updates and the deep workings of Larissa's head...

Bye!
