Nutty Buddy

On Tuesday and Wednesday I played in the Member-Member golf tournament at WCCC. I wasn't planning to play this year since my original Nutty Buddy, B, is days again from having baby Caroline but a few days before the tournament, Mimi Leasor called and asked me to play. Of course, I was excited and very interested in playing but the challenge was finding a sitter for Graham. I knew April could keep Morgan while I played but she doesn't have room for Graham. I ended up getting a neighbor lined up to babysit Graham and she was GREAT! I was SO proud of Graham for being a big boy for Lauren. I know he had a blast with her!

The tournament this year had a western theme and Mimi did a great job finding us western golf attire.



We played okay on Tuesday and very well on Wednesday which put us 3rd in our flight overall. Mimi was a great partner!! We scrambled well together throughout the tournament and even managed to take first in the Shoot Out.

Thanks to Mimi for the invite! You are one fun Nutty-Buddy!!

And a BIG THANKS to my babysitters and also to Bryan for making it possible for me to have some fun on the course this week!

WCCC Solheim Cup 2011

Last weekend was the 5th annual showdown at WCCC. This is one of my favorite tournaments to play in at the club. It is my 4th year to play in this tournament as a Mickey. It is a fun two days of match-play competition. The first day's format is two-member teams, playing alternate shot on the first nine and low ball on the second nine. The final day consists of singles matches.

Everyone ready to hit the course!
The Mickey's (in red) vs. The Babes (in pink)

Except me...I wore the wrong color shirt and ran home to get to change shirts. Go figure!

This year I played with my teammate, Peggy Barnes on Day 1 against Terri Chatham and Judy Cordell from The Babes team. We tied the front nine each receiving a half-point and they beat us on the back winning a point. My singles match was against Nancy Smith which again was halfed after tying our match.

In action...


After Day 1, The Babes led The Mickey's by 1 point. Day 2 the Mickey's (defending champions) pulled through in the singles matches to retain the Cup!

5th Annual WCCC Solheim Cup Champions! Way to go Mickey's!!

Victory drink out of the Cup


The overall count is now Mickey's - 2, Babes -3.

It was a wonderful weekend with friends, golf and great weather. Thanks to Patti for all that she does to make this such a wonderful tournament and also to our captains; Gladyce Reed, Pat Davis, Julie Owens - great job!! Can't wait til next year!!
