Family Golfing

by Lucky Red Hen on July 2, 2006



Left to right starting at the top: hubby’s dad/mom, hubby & I with our kids, hubby’s preggo sister & her hubby. Then the next picture is hubby’s sister & her hubby and daughter, hubby’s brother & his wife with their baby then hubby’s 2 youngest brothers.

While we were on holiday with family (hubby’s side) there was a golf course to set the perfect backdrop for pictures… until the sprinklers turned on! Nobody got wet, but we all sure bolted off the greens pretty fast.

Speaking of golfing, I went with Bowler Girl and Azucar for MY FIRST TIME (golfing, of course) last week and had a blast. Surprised that I was not completely and utterly horrible (I mostly kept the ball on the green and only lost 1 ball), I left with excitement looking forward to my next time. However, within the hour my back was KILLING me (I’ve got 3 bulging discs in my lower back from a fender bender years ago) enough to visit the chiropractor immediately then put on a strict regimend of ice and ibuprofen (then another Dr. appt with another tomorrow). It’s been 9 days and I’m still dying — eek. One cool thing from it is I now have a portable electro-shock device that attaches to my back for a little relief. Or to my children if they misbehave.

Just kidding (about the children).

No you’re not, but that’s why I love you.I had a blast too. I just knew you’d be a natural. I hope the bug hit so we can go often (your back permitting.)

You know, if you were just living the gospel, you wouldn’t have back pain.

What a great parenting tool…electro-shock….;-). You have my empathy with the back pain. Way to go…losing just a single ball….that only happens on my best days on the course.

OK, THAT was funny. A most excellent use of your amazing Photoshop skills.

And golfing aside–don’t you all look so great?!

So, you have talents – many of them, and a Harley. I was hoping we could be friends, but now I’m not sure . . . seriously, the photos are great. I was a little distracted by the photo of your (big) tall husband. . .

Melody – don’t feel that way; seriously. I’d love to have a nurse in my corner anytime and yes, my hubby is sure big. He’s 6’4 ;O) harharharLianne – the reason you don’t get many comments is probably (because I am all-knowing) you require an email and not many of us want to provide that.La yen – I guess I’m not as knowing as you ;o)Lyle – I love empathy!
