his first golf tournament

HC played in the Starburst tornament for the first time.  Oh his face just says it all!

I'm so happy Gary was able to take 3 mornings off work to be Hayden's caddie.  They are so  handsome and both just love the game.

They even took a few selfies for even though I was there every step of the tournament.

We all walked well over 10,000 steps each day of the three day event.  Actuallyyyyy Layla and I got a cart the last day, but walked a million miles the two days before.  It was fun to walk, but also fun to ride on the last day of the tournament.  

Here we go on the last day.

I love being a golf mom!  I have to thank Layla too for getting up early to support her brother!  She was up early walking with me and sweating like crazy to watch him play.

I'm thinking the golfer is getting onto the caddie a bit in this picture.  It was pretty hot the last day and tensions were high!

Two of the three days Hayden played with these two guys.  It's so fun to meet new friends on the course.

They had a fun time and I'm so glad that even though Hayden didn't get the scored he'd hoped for it was an amazing experience.  He knows he must work on his putting game before the next tournament.  He was on the green on almost every hole with two shots.  His putting game slowed him down.  He shot 57/58/57.  It don't think that is bad for his first tournament at age 9.  He's consistent!

This is the last selfie the guys took.  They were laughing so hard because like myself, sometimes when we take selfies we press the wrong button on the phone and turn the phone off.  Gary had done this several times and it was just so funny.  

Easter 2018

We spent our Easter morning on the golf course.

It was a wonderful day for golf.  The weather was breezy but nice and the sun was shining bright!

The Easter bunny delivered eggs to our backyard.

I'm so obsessed with our backyard view.  If this isn't God's work!!  

Gorgeous clouds on an Easter evening!

We enjoyed a relaxing afternoon on the back porch.  Layla drew pictures, Hayden played with his lizard friend and Gary and I just enjoyed the warm April sunshine!

I played the worst round of golf ever.  I actually quit.  I had high hopes for my Easter golf game, but it was less than pleasant.  It's been awhile since I failed so terribly at golf.  You win some and you lose some.

Happy Easter y'all!!

on holidays we golf!

driving range date

While I do get bummed out on some Saturdays when Gary is working, I do appreciate our Mondays together.  If he works on Saturday he will take off on Monday.  Monday the kiddos are at school so this is date day for Gary and I.

We weren't able to get in a full round of golf, so the driving range was a great alternative!  The weather was perfect and just look at those puffy clouds.  

I'm loving golf lately and I'm hoping to master my swing.  I feel like golf is a workout and working out is my therapy, so I loved my golf day date with Gary!

Fall Break!

These two get fall break here in GA!  How cool is that?  No school for a whole week!

So far we've watched tons of football and played outside!

Daddy smoked ribs and a pork shoulder.  He's happy to have taken a couple of days off to hangout with us and celebrate fall!

We were all squinting at the PGA Superstore!  It's cloudy but bright!  The kids picked golf as one of their sports for the fall, so we got a few new clubs and plan to work on our skills a little over the break.  

Happy Fall Y'all!!

double dates

We love to hang out as a family of four, but we also know that it's important for individual time together. Today Layla and I went to a small beach area with one of her friends and her mom.

The boys went to play golf.

Hayden is feeling much better after many itchy days and I'm so thankful he enjoyed his day with dad on the golf course.  We ended the day with dad grilling a yummy beef tenderloin.  It was a fun Monday! 

happy kiddos [finally} at TopGolf

Gary and I have been to Top Golf a couple of time since moving to the Atlanta area.

The kids were not happy with us going without them, but we decided to try it out and make sure it was fun before taking them.  You know, we wouldn't want to take them somewhere lame. ;) heeheehee!

We took them today!  The wait was crazy long, so we drove to check out a nearby lake and then we went back.  The wait was a bit shorter but we still had to wait.  We ate a few appetizers and the kiddos go the donut holes.  Top Golf serves infusable donut holes.  It is brilliant!!

I love my guys!!

We had a wonderful time and the kids seemed to love golfing at Top Golf.  Layla was doing amazing.  At one point Hayden was complimenting Layla on her swing.  He said, "wow those golf lessons really paid off!"  I'm surprised he remembers her taking golf lessons in Texas.

Ahhhh!  I love this girl!  This is what our selfies have turned into.  Silly stinker!

We had a fun day golfing.  At one point it was raining and we were completely dry.  

Yay for indoor golfing!

Monday Funday

Gary and I went to Top Golf again yesterday.  The kiddos had to go to school and they were both trying to talk us into skipping school.  No way Jose!!

We met my Aunt and Uncle there!  They're here in GA visiting from Texas!

It is so beautiful here in GA with no rain in the forecast!  It's been so rainy lately.  You bet your last dollar Gary and I took the top off the Jeep!  Woohoo!  It felt amazing to have the sun on our bodies!

Auntie and Donny Ray came over for a few hours to visit with the kiddos. It was a fun day Monday indeed!

Gary and I played golf today as a pre-anniversary outing.  It was so fun and the scenery was gorgeous.

I played the best round of my life and it was so fun when I actually had a good game.  I took a picture of this hole because I was on the green in one swing.  I wish you could see my tiny pink ball over to the right of the picture!

I'm glad Gary and I have a fun hobby we can share.  He definitely loves it more than me, but a fun golf game is good for me every now and then.

family golf day ~ single sentence saturday

We had a wonderful day yesterday golfing as a family!!
