Snow Golf Tourney 2009
I know I mentioned it a few weeks ago, and I am finally getting to the post...These pictures are from the beginning of March at our friends Todd and Sheri's annual Snow Golf Tournament. Snow golf you say? Yes! Exactly what it sounds like...real clubs, real balls, and a course complete with trees, holes, flags and water hazards...and it's held on a frozen lake! I'm tellin' ya...only in MN!! We had the kids with us so we didn't actually participate in the golf portion but we did follow a couple of groups and watch the shenanigans! Things went down the pot right from the start...the toilet tee that is!


Here is Krissy getting ready for her tee-off. We'll just say the whole round started off "shitty" :)
Or maybe it was Angie that was stinkin' the place up!?!

This is our good friend Dave. He was just along for the "ride" also. We piled him, Duke the kids and I all on the 4-wheeler to cruise around the course...SLOWLY of course!

This is Kris and Keith. If you've been following for a while..they are our Wii bowling friends. Now that they have bought their own we don't see them near as often. They must be practicing up...well keep practicing!

This is Angie's hubby, Jordan, giving it his best shot. Don't you find it ironic that there is a Port-a potty in the background! HA!
Grant even thought the toilet tee's were funny and had to give'em a try. I say teeS because there were two...one for lefty's and one for righty's! They thought of everything. The also marked the course's fairways (plowed areas) with little pine trees. You can see them in the background. There must have been hundreds of them! I can truly not believe all of the work they put into this event every year. Kudos to them!

Daddy was having fun showing off his little princess.

And Mommy was loving spending a warm spring day with her favorite little man.

Looks a little different playing golf in the snow and using 4-wheelers instead of golf carts!

But it sure was fun! Next year we'll probably leave the kids at home and enjoy some golf ourselves.
The whole family had such a good time together that day. Makes me smile just thinking about it :)

And then there was Kelly...enough said!

Here is Mark feeling right at home...on the toilet! I think he is enjoying it more that it was intended for!

Finally! He swings! ...didn't go very far anyway!

More entertainment...This is Johnny Evans aka Happy Gilmore!

Tootie was having a blast spending the day outside and watching everyone be goofy!

Oh, and she was held all day so she was in 7th heaven!

It seriously took him 4 swings to actually hit the ball and when he finally made contact...lets just say there was no need to get on the 4-wheeler to get to it!

Towards the end of the day the kids were getting tired and we finally figured out how handy it was to strap the car seat on the back of the 4-wheeler for Toots. She thought that was soooo cool and it gave Mommy and Daddy's arms a much needed rest! She even took a mini-nap in there too!

As snug as a bug in a rug!

I ♥ Faces Week 12 - "Pouting" and "Animals"

This weeks I ♥ Faces theme is "Pouting" Sounds easy, but I couldn't really find a true, lip sticking out, pouting pictures. I did think of this picture right away though. Audrey doesn't pout per say...she goes straight to the crocodile tears! In this picture she was mad at her brother for taking her blankie. She was pretty T'd off to say the least! And when that happens, in goes the nukie too.


This week, I ♥ Faces also has an "Anything Goes" pet category. Of course, I have to honor the memory of our beloved Gibber Gabbers (Gabby) who just passed away last month. 
This was also one of my first pictures I took with my new DSLR. I was sitting on the couch playing with all of the settings and taking pictures around the room when Gibbers popped her head up to see what all of the ruckus was. Now I am really glad that I got this picture. You can also see the spot that began forming in her eye about a year and a half ago. I truly think it appeared when she started getting sick with kidney problems. I'm not a vet so I guess it is just speculation. Either way, when I look at this picture all of the memories and emotion comes flooding back.
