Golfing with my Dad & Grandma & Grandpa

I got to go on my first golf outing over Memorial Day weekend.  My Grandma and Grandpa were going to Oakville to golf and my Dad wanted to go golf too so I got to go along.  My mom rode around in the cart and watched.  I don't think she knows how to golf.  I had so much fun in the cart!  I liked it when my dad drove crazy.  Sometimes I rode on his lap and pretended to steer.  It seemed like we had to drive in zig zags looking for his balls.  He seemed a bit crabby about it. I was going to call him a SliceO'Potamus but Mom said he wouldn't think it was funny.  On one hole my Grandpa was looking for his ball and his golf cart started to roll away!  It was so funny watching him run after it.  Plus I got a hot dog, a hamburger, and an ice cream bar.  Yummy! I started trying to practice my swing toward the end of the round.  Everyone said I did a good job.  Maybe I'll be the female Tiger Woods when I grow up.  I was really tired by the end though and I slept a long time afterword!

Barn Chores

Now that I'm old enough I help my mom and dad with barn chores.  Well mostly my dad.  My mom just watches now or only does easy stuff like fill water buckets.  I think my dad can't wait till she has the baby and does her own work again.  My favorite thing to do is give Falcon and Bill Bedding. Once you get the pellets wet they poof up real big and its super fun to play with.  Although my dad gets a little cranky when I just get handfuls and fling it around the barn.  He taught me that I'm supposed to put it in the stalls so I try now.  Falcon and Bill were outside eating grass yesterday so I got to go in their stalls with my dad!  It was awesome - I've been trying to get in there forever but my mom never lets me.  Something about getting kicked and trampled.  I've never seen my dad get kicked or trampled though so I think she might be making it up.
