Just when you think bowling can’t get any more fun, you get invited to celebrate a birthday with some Evening Gown Bowling. It must be my lucky bowling gear because I actually won the first game!
We all thrifted our dresses and I also found the glittery, beaded bow that cost as much as the dress :) I glued some ribbon on it and called it a necklace. I would be lying if I pretended I won’t be wearing that necklace again…
I’d never noticed all the fancy gowns in the thrift store before, but now they keep jumping out at me. Funny how that happens!

Ha! This is hilarious, and such a good idea, Lisa! I actually (semi) hate bowling but this could put it back in my good graces in a heartbeat. :)
Your friends look like a fun bunch, too :)
That looks like so much fun! I love to find fancy dresses at thrift stores, they are a weakness of mine. Who doesn’t love to get all dressed up?
