Our three groups:
Cole, Moira, Audrey, Jeff, Jordyn
Lauren, Esther, Brett, Maeve, Isabel, Katelyn
Caroline, Allison, Grandma, Papa
This course was so much fun and the kids did great!
It has some really interesting holes.
Everyone except Esther and Audrey had at least one hole-in-one! They weren't easy, either!
Oh NO! Caroline hit her ball....
in the WATER! There was lots of it around the course.
It was a beautiful course, built on a hillside. We all agreed it was the most well-designed miniature golf course we'd ever played on. Suffice it to say, we did a LOT of whoppin' and hollerin' - and LAUGHING! What a fun evening!
The CA family asked for a Cracker Barrell stop, so that was the dinner stop on the way home. Everyone loved it and just hung out awhile with after-dinner candy sticks and rocking chairs.
When we returned home, Cole, Jordyn, Lauren, Katelyn, and Allison put their stepping stones in one of the flower beds. Thanks kids!
The next day was Father's Day and we went to Brett & Esther's church so we could hear Brett preach. We said our good-byes there and then took Jeff & Caroline and kids to airport for their flight back to L.A.
It's always SO HARD to say good-bye. I tell my kids, "it's OK to cry. Just think how blessed we are because we love each other so much. Think what it would be like to cry because we DIDN'T feel that love, if there were hurtful words or actions."
To the blog readers, thanks for "bearing through" some of our memories!
What a treasured time we had!
No such thing as "bearing through". It is fun to read your family exploits! And yes,how blessed to cry because you do love each other so much!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great family - and so much fun!!! Bet it was kind of quiet after they all left, wasn't it? That's the hardest part, I think...but great memories help.
