just swimmin

We went to Grandma Nancy and Papa Glen's at Mckinley park today, even though it was only like 65 degrees, Joey still wanted to go in the water.




















We had our first annual IRRC softball game on Thursday night, Derek and I went to the field to help drain all the water from the previous night's rain. We had a blast, everyone had a good time, despite some rain drops.






Joey had a good time playing in the mud too!

My cousins from NC were in town so we had a small Aysta reunion at my Uncle Gary's house. From left to right, Nathan and Ethan, Shanyn and Brayden, Me and Joey, Doug and Grant. It was so nice to see everyone, it has been a long time since we have been together.

TIGER!!!





What an experience to see Tiger in person. He has lots of muscles!!























Today, we were by the putting green, right next to the gate, and Tiger came to put, he was going to leave, and then all of the sudden he went under the ropes, we were all looking at each other wondering where he was going... to the Bif of course! He is human, he does pee in biffies like the rest of us! on his way back, Derek said "Good luck Tiger" and Tiger looked at Derek and said "thanks" a moment neither of us will EVER forget... brought tears to both our eyes. What a fun two days.
