so one of the things we decided to do on my day off last week was to go golfing. not miniature golfing … but real golfing.
my dad actually gave me the idea … i just wasn’t coming up with anything that the girls were interested in. he told me about this 9-hole golf course that wasn’t too far from here … and it was supposed to be fairly easy and family friendly. joe is a big golfer … so i figured he’d be all for it. and my brother and sister-in-law had gotten the girls some real golf clubs for christmas a few years ago … and they’ve never really used them. and just a disclaimer for joe … that bag he is carrying is the girls golf clubs. lol! he just tossed a few of his clubs in there … he didn’t want to be lugging his bag around too. just don’t want you thinking he has some teeny, tiny bag. lol!
the girls did really good. they got really frustrated in the beginning … definatley harder than miniature golfing. lol! joe kept saying "you think it’s so easy to hit that little ball that isn’t even moving"! here’s probably way too many pictures from the day. believe me, i narrowed it down … they just all seem to go nicely together! click on any to see them bigger … and excuse the harsh, overhead sun (it was right at noon).
and this next one? yeah, the hole was across this water area. not sure what you call it … a stream? anyways, it seemed so far away. we figured we’d let the girls each have one try at it … with an old ball. and i was very surprised that both of them made it across. in fact, on sarah’s swing seen in this next picture … she actually landed her ball all the way past the hole and in those trees in the back. lol!
for the record … i hit one hole. we didn’t pay for me to golf … just joe and the girls. so i didn’t want to get in trouble. lol! but i snuck in one hole … and i was NOT good at it. and there was one photo of me doing it … but apparently my family still does not understand the importance of "filling the frame" and using the zoom that was on my lens. lol! so needless to say … no photo of me participating. but i was there … photographer and caddy!
