Friday night, Nicole and I went to dinner with some girlfriends that we grew up with. It was a lot of fun. We try to do this at least once every few months if we can!! Well this time, Richard and Jake, Nicole's hubby, decided to take the kids to play 9 holes of golf. Tatum has been a couple of time with Richard, and Gavin has been to the driving range and putt putt with Jake, so they were confident they would be just fine! Well, they were right. They all had a great time. Tatum loved it. She is ready to go back!
It helps that the weather was beautiful that evening. They played the back 9, at "twilight". Which makes it 1\2 price, and short enough for the kids to behave the whole time!
Here, Tatum was helping Daddy decide which way the green sloped! She is so silly!! Wouldn't it be funny if all the professional golfers got all the way down on the ground like this to check!?!!
Too cute!!
Here she is practicing her putting. Richard said she did really good. I knew once he told me how well she was doing and how good she behaved out on the course, he was going to tell me that he wanted to get her some real clubs of her own, and start taking her out there with him. Of course, I was right! He told me when I got home that night that he was going to go out the next day and get her some clubs. We ended up going to Play It Again Sports, because I thought she really didn't need a brand new set, not really knowing if she is going to play much. So, we checked out some small youth bags and a couple of clubs that she could use. Then we saw a brand new set, pink and black bag, with 6 different clubs, for a pretty good price. The bag is the cutest part. It has backpack straps on it, to help the kids carry the heavy bag. It is the CUTEST thing I have ever seen, watching her walk around the store with this big golf bag attached to her back! We decided that we were going to get her the new set, but we are saving it for her, to give to her at the hospital as a "Welcome to Becoming a New Big Sister" gift. I think this will be a great gift for her for this occasion. This way, when Mommy and Baby need quiet time, Daddy and Tatum can head out to the golf course!! She has talked about golf several times since we were at the store checking them all out. We drove past the driving range today and saw several little kids out there in lessons. She saw them and said that she can do that!! I know that she will be excited about the clubs. And, like I have always been told...any GIRL who plays golf in High School, is almost guaranteed a College Golf Scholarship! That's where we are headed now!!! LOL!
