Golf Getaway!

A week and a half ago, Dave and I got the chance to get away for a night.  We went to the Arizona Grand Resort, formerly South Point Mountain Resort, for a fun weekend.  

Here we are in the golf cart.  Dave and I used to go out and hit balls when we were first married, and I took a golf class when I was at BYU, but I hadn't played in about 12 years, so it has been fun to take the sport up again.  Dave's excited as his dream is for us to play golf every day of his retirement......
Dave's brother Jeff and his wife Kari also went.  It was fun being with them.  We are so lucky to be living so close to them, and love spending time with them.  Kari is also taking up the sport of golf, and I told her once all our little ones are in school, it will be fun to go out golfing together more.

Here are the boys standing on the tee.  Can you tell who is who?  Don't worry, I can.....
And here I am with my new clubs Dave got me for Mothers Day.  I've never owned golf clubs, so it was exciting for me.  

After golfing, Dave and I headed to the Arizona Mills mall for shopping and dinner.  Then back to the hotel.  The next day Kari and I got massages while the boys golfed again.  I don't get them very much so it was a nice treat.  Then we went over to the water park they have there.  It's a fun place with water slides, a lazy river, and a big wave pool.  If you've never been there, you should check it out.  We took our kids there last summer for a night and they loved it.  They have great rates in the summer.  It's a nice getaway, without all the drive time.  And when you book the room, 4 passes to the water park are included in the price of the room!!  

We had a great time, and thanks Dave for the fun weekend.  It's always nice to have some alone time without the kids, even if it is only for 24 hours........
