Sunday Funday.... Bowling Edition!

We took Maddie bowling today for our "Sunday Funday" activity.  With Matt working so much, we decided a long time ago that we leave Sunday's as our family day.... meaning that the three of us spend the entire day together doing something fun!  It may not sound like a big deal to everyone, but for us it is very special.  We are always trying to think of new things to do with Maddie..... and today it was BOWLING!

She had been once before but it was for a Christmas party, and long story short it was not a very organized party so things were confusing and chaotic.... so we decided to try again, but with just the three of us!

We had a blast..... I couldn't bowl (due to a toe injury that is still healing....ugh!  It's been too cold to wear flip flops... I'm FREEZING!) but I had just as much fun watching.  They only bowled one game, because as well all know, things with toddlers always take longer!  But it was cheap (apparently Sunday mornings are a good time to go.... here's a little tip for everyone:  call and find out if they offer a discount before a certain time.... for example our local lanes do $1.68 a game bowling before 1:00 pm on Sundays.... so it was under $15 for our Sunday Funday.... shoes were around $5/per pair ($10 for two).... and the games, as I said, were $1.68 so times that by 2 and you have a whopping $3.36).  Food at the lanes can be very expensive.... so we opted to go to lunch after at Arby's. 

After lunch, we had to stop at Harris Teeter for momma to do some couponing..... Here's what I got:
2 bottles of laundry detergent 150 oz each
2 boxes Kashi Go Lean Cereal
2 boxes Kashi TLC Bars 
2 rolls of paper towels
2 Kraft instant microwave mac & cheese
2 boxes Quaker Oatmeal 

all for under $30!

I'm excited because it's enough laundry detergent to last us for a few months.... at least!
Matt is excited because he loves anything Kashi.... but it is normally so expensive that I don't buy it.... I get a good coupon every once and a while.... but today was beyond good..... $1.97 a box!

And while talking about saving money.....

here's a deal for you.....

So to complete our Sunday Funday.... we all piled up on the couch and watched Shrek 2.... warm and cozy!  I had coffee and they had frozen fruit "ice cream".... haha!
