Golfing, Good Friends, and Great Times





















I must say that when we got golf clubs for Christmas a couple years ago, I had no idea that it would lead to what it has. I was very excited when my parents gave Trevor and I clubs for Christmas, and could not wait to use them. The first summer we had them, we went nearly every weekend, and sometimes we would get 3 rounds in one day! We were addicted! Trevor's parents had not golfed in years, and we got them hooked as well. I think that summer my tan was the darkest it had been in years! Even with all the sunscreen I used! Our favorite course has been Mic Riley, the small par 3 in Murray. It was the course that we learned on. The price is awesome and it allowed us to play all day! My very favorite course is in Fairview. It is a par 4 and there are no dog-legs, and hardly any houses. You can just hit the ball and not worry about anything! Plus, 18 holes and a cart only cost 7 dollars!! Well two years ago that was the price anyway. Trevor and I love to go and just play around. When it comes to our game, half the time we just play for fun, and have a good ole time. I have this thing that while I am putting, if my ball goes over the hole or near the whole, it's called a gimme. Which is why I usually win.


I have been itching to go golfing all year, I usually get the itch sometime in March, and since the weather and our schedules have been so crazy this year, I have had to wait. Saturday the wait came to an end. We finally got to go! We took Adam and Brianne with us. We went to Mic Riley, and had a fabulous day! The lawns were still to wet for carts, so we walked the course. I was not too excited about that fact since I had new shoes on and they were already rubbing on my heels. We made the best of it though. We started out pretty good! Trevor got an awesome birdie on the second hole. It was the most amazing put I have ever seen!! By the fourth hole, I was already hitting a 16, and things were looking grim... Trevor and Adam were hitting about the same, and Brianne was doing awesome! She led the score boards the whole day! I will not disclose our final scores, but there is work to be done for sure! I am also happy to report that we all got our first sunburns of the season. Well at least Trevor and I did for sure. I don't burn too often, which is good. Trevor has a pretty good farmer tan going on though. It's awesome!
After golfing we ordered some pizza, and watched movies at Adam's and Brianne's! The pizza, was ok. It was an hour late!! First off, while I was ordering, the guy on the other line should have not been on the phone. I asked if they had any specials, and instead of telling me what they were, his response was a plain old "Yes." I had to then ask "Well what are they." Ha Ha, the conversation did not go well from there. But, it turned out to be ok. The day ended pretty late, and I fell asleep during the second movie. But it was so much fun!!
We are going to plan a trip to Fairview a little later in the summer with Adam and Brianne so we can play again, and camp at the farm! We have a great summer planned with our families! This year I decided that I wanted to go to Arches for my birthday too! I can't wait!
