Bocce Ball--June 3, 2006

It was a rainy weekend with most of our time spent inside on the couch watching movies.

But, Claudia came up with the idea to go ball Bocce Ball at an Italian Restaurant around the corner from her apartment. Those playing: Chris, Claudia, Ewan, Steve, and Jaren were ready for fun.

Steve entertained us all by playing with his (bocce) balls.

They're a little saggy, Steve.




After playing a few games of Bocce Ball, we all worked up quite the appetite. So, we decided to dine at the restaurant. It was delicious food with fabulous service. Some of the entrees included: chicken parm, vodka penne pasta, manicotti. Plus we had the anti-pasta first, seen below.

It was the perfect way to spend the day!
