he's giving lessons now.

if your game needs a little tune up, give reed a call.  i hear he's pretty cheap!  plus, he's cute.  :)

giles jam 2017

mr. giles is 94.  and at 94, he plays golf 3 times a week.  and shoots his age.  and moves like he's nowhere near 94.  it's pretty impressive, really!!  but the most fun thing about him is that every year for his birthday he hosts his own birthday party/golf tournament!  then, he feeds everybody lunch afterwards.  i want to be like this when i'm 94.  somebody remind me that this needs to be me at 94.  i'm sure i'll forget!!

anyway, gwen and i couldn't play last year, but he made sure that we were available to play this year! we don't normally play with the bombers or the dandies (they have names for their groups), but we had fun being honorary members for the day!

cheers to 94.  i'm already looking forward to the next celebration!

mamoo and taylor

we made a quick trip to visit mamoo and taylor.  they recently moved to inverness, and we got the tour through their new house.  they are pretty proud of it!

i'm sorry, but every family has a goofball, right?

my other home

when your kids know that you go to kroger every. single. day., they just take to leaving you notes on the steering wheel.

forget "i love you" notes.  i just get snack lists!  :)

oh, what a beautiful morning!

this is what everybody does before 7am on weekday mornings, right?

at least if they are outside riding ripstiks, that means they are dressed and ready to go....

nerds

Our supper conversation tonight involved the discussion of a bullet shot and a bullet dropped from the same spot and which would hit the ground first. Suffice it to say that only one child understands gravity/is not stubborn. 

As I was cleaning up, Chase asked which would accelerate faster if hit with a golf club...a golf ball or a cotton ball? Two kids immediately said the golf ball. William pipes up with, "No way. Force = mass x acceleration. So, that means that acceleration = force/mass. If the golf club has the same force on each one, then the one with the smaller mass accelerates faster. The cotton ball wins." 

🤔

I'm just going to go ahead and declare us a house full of nerds.
