Golf-Filled Week

This week we did a lot of golfing. Kenton went by himself on Sunday, we went to the par 3 course on Monday for 9 holes, we went putt-putting on Wednesday, and just got back from golfing 18 holes at the par 3. Whew!

Putt-putting was a lot of fun... even though I did horribly! The video below is of Kenton's ball running into one of the course obstructions, but he did beat me by quite a bit. Boo. I'll get him next time. After Putt-Putt we went for a late dinner at Texas Roadhouse - ordered two kids meals and ate a bunch of rolls and peanuts - yum!

Kenton messes up a putt - too bad he still won

On Monday when we went to the par 3, I had my best round ever and my most consistent round - every one of my drives went up in the air instead of rolling 25 yards on the ground. But when we went today... it was rough again. Golf is so difficult to be consistent at! No wonder Tiger Woods is the highest paid athlete in the world (mega-endorsements don't hurt).

I did have one great putt (too bad we didn't get it on video) - I drilled it into the hole, it bounced about 2 inches off the ground and dropped in... awesome. I'm determined to get better, but it will probably take me a few years.

Sunday Free!

Kenton and I decided to take some time for us individually on Sunday. It was a great day. We went to church together and then after I came home and took a LONG nap... and he went out golfing. Crazy guy went to a long course and didn't get a cart.

My idea of fun was waking up from my nap at 1:30pm, setting up the travel DVD player with a good chick flick at my scrapbooking table and staying inside in one place all afternoon. It was fantastic. I worked on Josh's (Kenton's adorable nephew) scrapbook - I'm making him one for each birthday for the previous year (this one runs Dec. 2006-Dec. 2008). His birthday party is on July 26, so it's a good thing I'm almost done, just 3 pages left to go. Pictures of my favorite pages below.
