Saturday dad and I got up and headed to a local golf course for his church's spring tournament. As usual per most years, I was the only female playing in the tournament. Dad and I played on a team with two others and my brother, Eddie, played on a team with some others as well. I must say it was by far not the best I have played, but yet it wasn't the worst either. I hadn't played a round in over a year, so my swing was a little off and rusty. But still I managed to hit the best drive on our very first hole. It does a girl's ego well to play her drive on the first hole when playing in a scramble with three grown men!!
After lunch I headed to Ruston to spend the evening with my mother. We watched tv, ate pizza, and went to bed early. It was a fabulous evening just hanging out on the couch with mom and the dog!
Sunday I got up and headed back west towards Shreveport. I met up with my brother and sister-in-law and some of their friends and we hit the lake for the day. The eight of us spent about five hours chilling on the boat, laughing, wake-boarding, tubing, swimming, hanging out, enjoying the day, and getting nice and sun-burnt. I don't often get the chance to spend time with my bother and sister-in-law in their "world". Usually if we are together, we're all at my parents or something like that. But it was nice to spend a day with them and their friends. It was good to just meet them where they're at and enjoy life with them.
Once we finally got out of the water, I began my journey back to South Louisiana. After such a great weekend at home, it always makes me a little sad to venture back south. I do love my family and cherish the times I get to spend with them. I just wish it were more often.
Until then......
