About Me

This was me on our Honeymoon
(...yes we went golfing on our honeymoon...I'm a pretty cool wife)

That's our house in the background, I married a keeper! ;)
well actually it's the clubhouse at Classic Club in Palm Springs, CA
But I did marry a keeper!

I am fairly new to the game of golf. I met my husband in the fall so I didn't know the true meaning of these three little words..."I'm a golfer." Everyone said, you know him in the fall and winter, but you don't know him in the summer. Boy were they right! Every year I am reminded again and again what it means to be the wife of a golfer! I'm just glad we live in Utah and not Arizona!!! I enjoy golf every now and then, but I'm more of a "let me drive the cart" kind of a girl.
And then he got me!
He gradually started buying me golf equipment. It started with his Nana giving me her set of clubs that she didn't use anymore. A pair of Nike golf shoes with a baby blue swoosh. Then we happened to be in Dick's and I saw a pink argyle skirt I had to have...it was cancer awareness month, and I had to support, right? One fateful afternoon he won a golf tournament, and with some of his winnings he bought me a Titleist golf bag...which happened to be pink too! That led to a sweet Black Clover putter cover. Done. I had to go golfing now! 
Sweet shoes (check)
Cute outfit (check)
Cute bag (check)
Awesome putter cover (check, check, check)
...oh ya, I had clubs too...you need those!

Being married to a golfer is one thing. Being married to a GOOD golfer, who actually knows what he's doing is quite another. If he's going to spend so much of his spare time on the golf course he better be good at it, that's for sure! 
Now I must admit I'm still not an avid golfer, but I love a good excuse to wear a cute outfit, and let me tell you golf is a perfect excuse to wear a cute outfit! ...I'm thinking of picking up tennis too!
