Golf Outing

Mommy's work had a spring outing tonight and the venue was a putt-putt golf course. Talk about a perfect setting for our new little Golfer. We got out to the course at about 6:30, Aiden had a golf club and ball in hand by about 6:45, and aside from a mandatory food break of about 20 minutes, he was hitting a golf ball from before 7pm until 9pm this evening. He would probably still be golfing now if we hadn't tricked him into sending his ball down the chute on the 18th hole that made it go "all gone". And boy was he mad when we turned the putters in. He got a kick out of putting the ball in the hole though. We stayed at one hole for quite awhile, he would hit the ball in the hole, pick it up, set it about 3 inches away from the hole and hit it in again. We went through that for probably about 20 minutes or so. After dinner when we decided to play as a family, after about 9 holes Aiden was getting pretty good at putting the ball in the hole, picking it up, grabbing mommy or daddy's hand and walking to the next hole.

How cute is that? Of course then there was the betrayal of turning in the golf club, which we may never be forgiven for. But then we went and looked at the shiny lights on the arcade games and all was well.

Here are some pictures and a short video. We didn't get to do a lot of pictures since we were too busy chasing Aiden around, but here is what we caught "on film".
