little victories

have you ever watched people bowling? like reeeally watched them?  it's incredible. and i don't mean that in a really mean way actually-though some things you see are actually very funny-like the guy in the lane next to us who made a face, did this jump thing and a leap each and EVERY time he did ANYTHING. no matter how good or bad he did. he was loving his goofiness and having the time of his life with his girlfriend. and NO this was not joshua this time, though this might come as a shock to some of you that know him. he was rather calm today-i think from being exhausted from our ridiculous work day!  anyway, so i enjoyed our date cause i always enjoy our dates, but also because i was loving all the people around us.  there was a little family with a 3 or 4 year old and a 10 year old, i don't know if you have ever watched a tiny child bowl, but it was probably one of the most adorable things i have ever seen. she was precious. and then there was the chinese family next to us with a mom, dad, new baby and grandma, a young grandma, not like 80 lol. i loved watching them because they each had their own unique way to bowl, but after each frame they had this giant look of triumph on their face.  it was a common theme among everyone at the bowling alley actually.  it's incredible really.  EVERONE, has the same look after completeing all or most of a frame.  it is their own victory in this tiny world.  and unlike the real world where no one celebrates even the tiniest victories, not in the adult world anyway, big or small, EVERYONE celebrates a tiny victory, even when they only knock over 3 pins.  i think it's awesome. and i think that we should all celebrate more little victories everyday, our own, and those surrounding us.  the world would be a better place.
on another note, the zahn family pictures are in now, i'm waiting on my disc, but i do have the two pictures of the man and i :) they are great. and so is my awesomely huge print of us.  it's 10x13 and awesome, though i will need to go to get a frame since the one i have only fits 4x6......oh darn, hobby lobby it is :)


we are good looking. and i love these.
