Temple Open House

They built a temple right by our house and there were open houses for the public. We went with our friends, Emily and Georgia to see the inside before they bless it is an seal it. It was interesting to see it and to learn about it.

Otter Creek AJGA and IU Visit

Jack and I headed to Columbus, IN so he could play in the AJGA qualifier in Otter Creek before heading home. John and the girls left and drove back to Bentonville. Jack played really well. He was two over on the front and one over on the back going into the last hole...where he "made a snowman" as he says. He shot a 79, finished in the top half, and missed making the cut to play in the tournament. We drove to Bloomington and walked around the IU campus. He saw the business school and Assembly Hall. On Monday, we did an information session for interested students. He really liked the campus and school. 











Ollie was waiting for us to make it home

Quick Trip to Indiana

Lost Springs: AR Jr. PGA #3

Kate won this match with a new low score of 78. She had a 41 on the front and 37 on the back. She was one under on the back going into 18, but made a double on it. She had one bogey on the front, plus one 8...other than that, she had all pars. She hit it really well. Anna was second with an 83, and Elizabeth had an 84. After the match, they had a swing lesson with Phillip Walker. Jack also won his age division with a 73. He finished birdie, birdie to tie his friend Maddock, then birdied hole one to win the play-off.
