Vacation - Ludington

We had such a great time in Ludington this year. Once again some unforgettable memories on Hamlin Lake with family and friends. Camryn did wonderful. She loved all the attention, ate a ton, slept in everyday and was full of smiles all week. She loved the boat, beach and water just like mommy, and liked to watch daddy fish and go out in the 'ba-ba-boat'! Our boat trip to the dunes on Hamlin Lake...we anchored the pontoon and enjoyed the water for a while. Camryn liked her feet in, but made sure daddy was close by.

Cami kept her distance from the fish as we prompted her to touch it. She wanted no part in that. Instead, she made a disgusted facial expression and blurted out 'Ucky!'

Camryn loved the swing at the cottage. She was lauching so hard and making lots of cute faces!

LPGA here I come!

I was priveledged to get to play in the 2008 Meijer Charity Classic..which was by far one of the coolest things I've ever done! I played with Stephanie Louden - who is just getting back into the swing of things in the LPGA tournaments after have a baby three months ago. She was such a delight and inspiration to talk to. It was amazing playing right with one of the pros. Our team ended up 11 under and we actually used quite a few of my shots.

Oh yeah, I'm feelin it! LPGA here I come!

Is that Natalie Gulbis or Renee Kolzow?

I can't begin to explain what an exhilerating experience this was. I don't think I'm any better at the game, but my respect for the sport is even greater than before. All I want to do is play golf now...Andy's pretty happy with that!
