Memorial Day Weekend

Memorial Day is the holiday that always starts my summer. It usually includes the lake, the pool, or a cook out while remembering the fallen soldiers who have lost their lives while serving in the Armed Forces. This year was quite different from the past years. Instead of going to the lake house we stayed in Senatobia. We had planned on going to Smith Lake, but Papaw had a show in Missouri. Casey always goes with dad, so we were down two men by that trip. Memaw and Ricky went to Georgia to see our cousin, Ali, graduate. That left Mimi, Suzy, and I. Laurie had to work Friday and KK went to Pickwick. Scott didn't get home until late Friday night, so Mimi and I decided we would stick around Tate County for the weekend. If we aren't at the lake, we usually are at Mimi's house laying by the swimming pool. That was a no-go this weekend, too. Mimi's pool liner is out of commission. She will have a new one in a couple weeks. We just had no luck on getting to enjoy the sunshine by the water, unless you count Suzy's kiddie pool.....

Scott informed me Sunday that we were playing in a golf tournament with his mom and dad on Memorial Day. I gripe and complain all the time because Scott never includes me in his golfing adventures. I also griped when he informed me that I would be playing in a golf tournament.... I CANNOT PLAY GOLF. I suck at it. I suck royally at it. After the initial shock that I would be participating in this event, I started getting excited. I thought it would be fun to get out and enjoy doing something that Scott loves so much. I text Laurie and KK and asked if they could babysit while we went to BACC. Laurie responded excitedly and said she would love to keep her. KK responded a few minutes later saying she would join in on the fun! Laurie and KK took Suzy to the park and Scott and I played golf.

Scott told me that I needed to use some of his credit at the pro shop to buy a new shirt.... I think my shirt is freaking awesome!! 

Can you tell that this was after like hole 3? He is still smiling. By hole 14 he probably wanted to kill me. 

This is was probably hole 14. 

Of course, Laurie dressed Suzy for the occasion!

Laurie said she loved the slide!! 

 I didn't do as awful as I had expected, but I definitely didn't do great. I am decent at "driving". I cannot putt for the life of me though. I want there to be fun clowns spitting water at me, obnoxious music playing in the background, and a bright purple golf ball in order for me to putt well. There were none of those gadgets to interest me, so that didn't help my golf game. I think we all enjoyed our game though. When we finished we had a score of 65. Apparently, that is 7 under PAR for BACC's course. I had nothing to do with that score. Pops, Gigi, and Hubs did all that. We ended up winning 2nd place in our flight. We won $60. Can't beat that!! All in all, it was a great weekend!!
