Mini Golfing

The middle of August Jen and I took the kids (Emma, Jacob and MaKena) to Thunder Road to do some mini golfing and go cart riding. Except we didn’t get to ride on the go carts because it rained and we had to leave. But we got 18 holes of mini golf in and the kids had a blast. MaKena and Emma hadn’t been mini golfing before so it was hilarious to watch them. I should have taken some video of them. I would help MaKena with her first shot and then she’d run after the ball, pick it up and drop it in the hole. She didn’t understand that she was supposed to hit it in the hole with the putter. I was able to get her to try it but eventually she’d just pick it up. I suppose it was a lot easier that way! Surprisingly we only lost MaKena’s ball once and I think that might have been my fault. Thankfully Jen and Jacob were able to retrieve it out of the water. By the time we got done mini golfing we decided to purchase some tickets to ride the go carts. It was extremely busy that day and by the time we were at the front of the line it started to down pour so we called it a day. The kids had a blast.

MaKena putting her ball in the hole. This is how a majority of her holes ended!!
Emma hitting the golf ball. Look how she's holding the club. It was cute. Jen and I tried to show her the right way but she kept going back to holding the club this way.

She gave up and resorted to the easy way.
