April Fool's Day


Okay, so my team got me good! I'm a stickler for our uniforms every day. We dress exactly alike, because Adidas provides us a bunch of great stuff, so I want us to always look our best! Every tournament I type up a uniform list with what we're wearing head to toe each round. So yesterday I get down to breakfast in what I THOUGHT we were wearing. Well player after player comes down in the black uniform, so I questioned the first couple girls, but then rushed upstairs to quickly change! I pulled off my sweater and cap in the elevator and ran to my room. When I was just about changed, my phone rang -- HA HA - April Fools! They all did have the correct uniform packed up to change in the bus. VERY FUNNY girls! I have to admit, they got me!

Georgia Photos




We played at the University of Georgia last week, where they have an egg toss and fishing contest before the first round - here are some photos from the day!

Volunteering for Habitat




The players spent their one free Saturday this month volunteering for Habitat for Humanity. They worked hard up on the roof - learned some new skills for the future! I'm proud of them - they are a good group!

Rounds 1 & 2 Almost Complete!

We almost finished our 36 holes today at the Kinderlou Challenge. Our players all have either 2 or 3 holes to finish tomorrow, but most teams have a few more holes than that to finish up round 2. It was a beautiful day today! Upper 60's, no wind and sunny - it was a pleasure to be out on the golf course all day. Of course, tomorrow is supposed to be a different story, 50 and rain, but hey, we're used to that right? We played pretty well today and at the moment are 5 shots out of the lead in second place. We're excited to get back on the course and make up those shots!

On The Road Again!


After a disappointing finish in Arizona, and two days at home, we are back on the road! We are in the bus heading to Valdosta, GA. It's a 7 hour trip, but with internet, couches, dvd players, satellite tv and a driver it's an awesome way to travel! We compete Monday and Tuesday at Kinderlou Forest G.C. After cold, wind and rain in Arizona we are hoping for some better weather this tournament, keep your fingers crossed!

Time to Play!




We played in our practice round at Arizona National today - the course looked great, but it was chilly out there! We are sooo ready to compete tomorrow after almost a 4 month off-season break. We play 36 holes tomorrow and the forecast is for pretty cold and rain all day - but we are tough, so no problem!

Our New Facility is Almost Done!


Wow, I just drove by our new golf facility and it's really coming along! After many many delays and lots and lots of money it's almost complete. Most of the facility has been sodded except the greens and tees - grass will be planted on them this spring. It looks amazing and is going to make practice even more fun! We have a chipping green, huge putting green, a tee that is almost 100 yards long and 3 practice holes. This photo is from the green of the second hole looking back toward the first green. The second hole is about a 130 yard par 3.
