The last time that we went up to Virginia, Brett's parents had the wonderful idea of playing Par-3 golf during the morning on July 4th. We haven't even hit golf balls in months, much less play golf, but we all had such a great time! 
Brett had several impressive chips during our game. Not to brag, but I was pleased with my tee shots. This trip made me realized how much I miss playing golf! There's just something about the smell of the grass in the fairway, even if I only get as close as sand trap...hey, I like the beach...and sand... fortunately, this course didn't have many sand traps! 
We love spending time with David and Des. I wish we could see them more often, but we make the most of the time that we have. This time was no different!
We look like a couple of pros huh? Ok, maybe not... but let me tell you who is crazy good at hitting the ball really far..it's Brett's dad. Seriously, he could pretty much use a pitching wedge and get it all the way past the far side of the green. Brett and I tended to use the 3 club philosophy of a 5-wood up to the edge of the green, PW/SW to chip, and a putter. This works well for us on a Par-3 or a regular golf course.
Des did really well too! At the end of the day, we were all in a range of 9 strokes. Maybe we could make a career out of this?! One can always wish!
No blog would be complete without a random picture of a flower or some type of plant. So, here it goes....
So, we asked one of the employees to take a picture of us. We all look great in this picture, even if David and Brett are missing the tops of their heads! This was a great idea so thanks David and Des for taking us to the course!
Another great thing that we enjoyed while with the fam was the fruits and veggies of D&D's labor from their new garden. I haven't ever tasted any tomatoes as good as what they have! I'm just about convinced that Brett and I should have a garden. Ok, let's take one step at a time... Along with great company and great food, we also laid around at a friend's pool to soak up some rays. After swimming, Des and I sat and read our books while David and Brett played basketball. It was a great weekend!!!

David -
Oh my goodness... I didn't even catch that! I guess that wasn't the best shot for showing off your mad skills... I'll switch it out! :) Love you! Thanks for always having such a great sense of humor!!!
Nice hibiscus photo.
You should totally have a garden! I recommend Romaine lettuce...very easy to grow, and saves a lot of money if you eat salads a lot!
