Mini-golfing for 8!

Todd & I had 6 kids (2 nieces & 4 nephews) this weekend, from Thursday afternoon to Sunday afternoon, so they could be flag carriers in the Freedom Celebration at our church. We had practice on Thursday night, practice on Saturday morning, one service on Saturday night & two services on Sunday morning. Friday was totally free, so we took the kids mini-golfing & then to my mom's house where we had filled up the pool and they played in the water for awhile before we had dinner there.

Tyler taking his shot. Uncle Todd, Nicholas & Brenden & watching. On a lot of the holes, Tyler would hit it a couple of times & then he would pick up the ball & set it down next to the hole & then hit it in. :) We will teach him when he is a little older that he can't do that. :)

Tyler, Nicholas, Uncle Todd & Sophia............and the bear drinking a soda.......or a shake perhaps........while doing a handstand. :)

Sophia, Brenden, Tyler, Emily, Nicholas & JD with the dinosaur. Sophia, Tyler & Emily wanted to wear some wild ties that are in our dress-up box. :)

Nana helping Tyler take a shot by the Goony Bird. At one hole, I didn't get over soon enough to help Tyler swing & he threw the ball up the green...........and he got a hole-in-one! It was pretty funny! :)

We had a fun time, but it was a little warm and it took us about 2 1/2 hours to play the 18 hole course!
