"If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will—to your surprise—miss them profoundly." - Pres. Thomas Monson

Future Golf Pros?

Derek earned a free game of golf by reading at school. The coupon expired on July 31st and we couldn't let a coupon expire without using it. So at 7:30 pm on July 31st we cashed the coupon in. The boys had never been miniature golfing, so it was a fun new experience for them.

We obviously didn't work on form, but just let them see what fun it can be. We'd let them go first and send them holes ahead while Dave and I took our turns. (Dave won by two strokes...in case anyone really cares.)
Poor McKenna misses out on the fun stuff. Another shot of her waiting for us in the stroller.
Are there any budding golfers in the family?? I guess we'll wait and see. :)

I love it! :) It looks like you guys had a blast! I totally think they have a chance. HMM you may need to change their name to some kind of large cat though...:)

That particular (won't name names and give "bad press") mini golf course is challenging with all the rips, tears, and unintentional water holes. I had to remind my family the last time we were there that it was all part of the fun - avoiding the ripped carpet. I would have thought they would have repaired things a bit - guess not. How fun, though.

Stephanie, that is so true! Many of my brilliant shots were blocked by a gash in the carpet. Yep, all part of the fun. Dave even fixed a water leak for them. :)
