Weekend Fun

This weekend Mike and I started taking golf lessons. Mike knows how to play pretty well but I haven't ever played. Mike's friend Randall gives golf lessons so he is starting to give us lessons too. Saturday was our first lesson and I think it went pretty well but I was surprised at how hard it is. The pros make it look so easy to just swing the club and hit a ball but its hard and my hands were killing me by the end. It was fun though! Its a fun hobby and I really like that its something Mike and I can do together. We didn't play a round today but just went to the driving range. I had to work on my grip, posture, and finish. I think I hit 5 or 6 good hits that got some good distance but my goal today was just to get the form right.

Of course we couldn't go golfing without Daniel. Maybe he'll be a great golfer someday...who knows but he was such a good boy out in the sun. He played with Mike's golf balls and had fun throwing them on the ground and having Randall pick them up and then throw them back down. He thought it was pretty funny.

After golfing we were pretty gross so we went to the pool. We had made plans to have our friends Brianna, William and there cutie Ian come to the pool with us. I know they don't look like they're having fun but both Dan and Ian were little fish and had so much fun in the water. It was a little cloudy when we got there but then the sun came out and it felt so good in the water. The only annoying part was some kids who were splashing around us a bit to much. I wish they had moved away from us a bit but they got better after a little while. This definitely beats coming to the pool by myself though. Dan had more fun with other people to play with and I liked having friends to talk to and Mike.

 

After the pool we all rested and watched Dan walk around the apartment. He is getting so much more confident. He has been taking a few steps here and there by himself for a few weeks but tonight he was really cruising and getting brave. I think he was taking 6 or 7 steps on his own. Its so much fun to see how excited he gets when he lets go and walks on his own. He's so proud of himself.

After Daniel went to bed for the night Mike and I cuddled up on the couch and watched The Giver. It was such a fun and relaxing Saturday :) I wish we could have Saturdays like this more often.
