Golf

I am a little behind on some of the things that went on this summer.  I know that dad will appreciate this post.  Brady made the comment once that if Papa lived near us, that he would probably play a lot of golf with him. (And Cameron jumped in and said yeah-and me and Mema could share all the books we want!)

Brady had a great year playing golf.  He loves the game!  It was fun to see a few of his matches.  He and a buddy had a goal to do well and they did just that.  His friend placed first in Region and Brady placed second. 

Braden and his friend L. were asked to carry out the school flag before a football game (because of doing so well in region).  Brady said it was cool to be standing in the middle of the huddle. 

State is highly anticipated every year for Braden.  This is his first shot off on the second day.   It was a cold two days.  Jim took off a few days from work so we could walk and watch. 

Although Braden didn't think he played well the first day, he did qualify to play again the second day.  In fact he was the only individual that did qualify out of over 100 boys. (the rest qualified as a team to return the second day.)  He shot an 80 the first day and a 74 the next day.  This put him in the top ten at state again this year!  We enjoyed being there with Braden and look forward to next year. Jim has taken it upon himself to play a lot of golf with Brady( to help him get ready for next year).  It is a real sacrifice I'm sure!
