Breaking News - Local Golf Pro Has Saturday Off!

It's one of those rare occurences, and we're always so excited when it actually happens - a Saturday when Andy does not go into work. I got the call Friday afternoon. The first thing Andy tells me is that he needs to stay late at work that night. My blood quickly starts to boil, but before the steam shoots out of my ears he explains that it's so he can get extra stuff done and have a three day weekend! Ok - my blood pressure quickly goes down. To top it off, the weather on Saturday could not have been more perfect. We started off the day at Bluebird Gap Farm and stayed through lunch. That place is just so cute! Since it's right next to Bass Pro Shops, we had to go there next so the boys could see the fish and jump on the ATV's (not really sure if that's allowed, but they thoroughly enjoyed it). We left with Andy convinced that we need a boat. Hmmm....we'll have to think about keeping him away from that store for a while. Oh, and Caleb wants the red ATV for Christmas because it's his favorite color. Good luck with Santa on that one sweetie.

Isn't this the most beautiful peacock?





This is the couple that Caleb "adopted" while we were feeding the ducks. He just plopped himself down right next to them and struck up a conversation. He is so shy at times, even with people he knows, and then there are times like this. He always keeps us guessing!

I try to stay clear of Bass Pro. Ben always comes home with "ideas". My boys have been trying to talk me into an ATV too. I can just see the hosptial bills now from all the boo boo's. Enjoy having Andy home for a long weekend.

That's hilarious - Anderson has the same reasoning - red as a favorite color seems to trump all!! So glad your family got some extra quality time together!!!
