Mom's golfing debut! Ha! Ha!

WARNING!!! Lots of pictures!
David took me to our local driving range here in Orting. He was so sweet and so helpful!
David did very well! He said that he had not hit any golf balls for a few years. Really? They sure went flying!

He also hit some right off the green! He hit 200 yards!

He has good form, at least I think so!
I have to tell you that doing it with the Wii is nothing like holding an actual golf club!
Look at that form! Awesome! Ha! Ha! Trying to think about your form, looking at the ball and then swinging. Am I that coordinated???

This was the 'easy' part!
Concentrate! Concentrate!
And whoosh! I missed the ball! That happened several times!
I liked hitting it off the green! :o)

Great form! And....
Oh gee! Look where the 'tee' is and look at the newly dug hole to the right! Ha! Ha! Ha! I only did that once!
This is what the grass looked like when we arrived and pretty much the same when we left! I hit some balls that actually bounced off or ricocheted off some balls out there! I almost made it to the red flag! I had 2 that actually went between the red and yellow flags! :o)
My handsome son David! We enjoyed our hour of fun!
Thank you David for taking me! Thank you all for the great birthday gift!
That was a lot of fun and I think I will do that again. We brought 3 of Dad's irons, 1,3,5.
My high Wii golf score was 190! On the driving range...hmm...needs a lot of work!

HAHAHA!
Oh Mom, you are just the cutest 60 year old I have EVER seen!
I SO wish I could have been there, you are SUCH a good sport to have gone at all!
I was cracking up at your pic with the tee and the gash in the green ;)
If nothing else, I hope you enjoyed your time with your handsome son.
Happy Birthday!

You DO have a handsome son, whooweee!
It looks like you guys had a lot of fun, I am wondering though, if you felt sore afterwards? We should all go together sometime, I think that'd be fun!
