Mini-Golf = Mega Fun

We have a much loved new pastime at our house...mini-golf!!! I remember loving this "sport" as a kid, even though the opportunities for playing it back then were few and far between. It was usually something we got to do only when we visited our grandma and grandpa in the summertime. Well, we decided it would be fun to introduce the girls to something new, and there are a couple of fun courses nearby, so we headed out. The whole concept of getting the ball into the hole with as few strokes as possible seemed a little elusive to them at first, so we decided to forgo scorecards and swing away. Personally, I think it's much more fun that way anyway.   

All the clubs were a little too big for Ellie, so she just carried her yellow ball around.

Trying to get this golfing thing all figured out

Maybe it will help if we all get a little bit closer...

Posing with the golf clubs

Swing,

Swing again,

And if all else fails, just drop the ball in the hole!

Getting some extra help from Dad is always a good option too!
