Who's Your Caddy?

We decided to spend Father's Day with a new tradition. The 2009 Hickory Hills Father's Day Mini Golf Open. The Challengers were: Kelsey, Eric, Alex and Amanda.

Eric took his time at each hole, but his old age and forgetfulness worked against him when he realized that the winner was the one with the lowest score, not the highest...

Alex had a 5 stroke lead going into the back 9. He got very cocky with his 2 holes-in-one and announced at hole #9 that he would win the tournament.

But quiet and consistent Kelsey ended up winning it all by 2 strokes. (After a 7 point deficit on the front 9) Amanda, who was not seen in any photos, as she had to hold the score card, the camera, and the flag at each hole, placed 3rd overall. Maybe next time she won't have so many other duties to perform that would distract her from her A-game!

After a very competitive and tiring 18-holes of golf, we had a great BBQ dinner on the deck. The weather really improved and it was a perfect evening.

Dinner included BBQ ribs, chicken & pineapple kabobs, potato salad, brown rice and Grandma Browns baked beans.

A very enjoyable read. We had our usual rainy day here. Mark took Greg and Em to the movies to see UP. I was down with a cold. Work is a hot bed of germs;(
