A Wild Game of Mini Golf

After spending the day giving the house a good cleaning, we decided to go miniature golfing for Family Night.


I thought that this would take some time considering the ages of the youngest kids, but it only took about 1/2 hour to play. We split the kids up into groups by their ages.

The youngest three, Josh, Ian, and Timmy went first. They started out taking turns hitting the ball, but after the first hit on each hole the race began and it was every man for himself, and if they decided they were done with a hole they just picked their ball up and placed it in the hole. Then they picked it up and move on to the next hole.


The middle group Joe, Matthew, and Davis were next. They tried to play real golfing rules,meaning that who ever is farthest from the whole gets to hit their ball. They were all trying to be the farthest and were constantly calling out. I'm the farthest, no I am. I don't think they were concerned about scores at all.


The last group was the 10 year olds, Emily, Brevin, and Scott. You would think that this would be the group that played by the rules, kept score and remained focused. You would be wrong. They were just as crazy as the younger kids.



And what happens when the older kids catch up with the younger?



They make themselves part of the course.

Bethany and the babies, Sam and Valerie, also participated a little, so I guess you could say there were four groups. I think the babies group was the calmest of them all.


It was a fun wild game of mini golf!
