First Annual Family Golf Outing

We had the first annual CBCH golf outing on Sunday! It poured rain all morning and early afternoon, so we hung out at our house and munched while we watched the Vikings lose to Green Bay. :-( The rain finally quit just in time to head out to a nearby Par 3 course, and the rest is history!

It still looks a bit soggy, doesn't it? Jenna and Corey drew names to make up 3 teams of 3 players each. The teams were: #1 - Chuck, Jane, and Corey; #2 - Pat, Andy, and Joyce; and #3 - Ted, Jenna, and Paul. Our plan was to play best ball, and since there were NO other crazy players on the course, all nine of us set off for the first tee together.
Are we having fun yet?? We all teed off, and then each team made their next shot from their team's best drive, and so on. We were a bit slow as we made our way around the course, but it was really fun to all stick together and cheer for all the great (?) shots. Needless to say, there were a few duffs, too.

It started to sprinkle on about the 3rd hole, and Chuck's umbrella turned completely inside out in the wind. I missed the picture and the surprised look on his face, and by the time I got my camera out, he had it staightened out.

Here's dead-eye Jenna as she putts. Actually, Pat had the putt of the day on the very first hole to help her team get a birdie. What a way to start!

And the winning team is.....

Ted, Jenna, and Paul, with a winning score of 32!

We started a traveling trophy, so we'll see who gets it next year. It was great fun, even with the soggy weather! After golf, we headed back to our house where Heidi and Maddox joined us for supper. Maddox will probably be golfing with us next year!
