Houston was fun

Well, we did the first round on Friday and the second round on Saturday. It was hot and there were a lot of mosquitos...these are the complaints of the caddy. We couldn't really get anything going and the putts just didn't fall at all so he missed the cut this week. Saturday night we went to the Astros game (awesome stadium) and while we were standing in line to purchase a couple of the cheap seats a guys said Merry Christmas and handed us 2 tickets at club level. I'll try to post a picture later but it was so much fun and obviously great seats. We've had a good time in Houston with a great host family and now waiting to head to the airport to fly home tonight. Chris is looking forward to taking some time off and putting the clubs up for awhile while we go to Orlando (yay!) before I start school and Chris heads back out for more tournaments. Good trip and time to head home for a bit.

First Round Cancelled

Well, it rained a lot yesterday, last night and this morning. Originally they post-poned everything 2 hours and now have called today's round. The hope/plan is to do the first round tomorrow, second on Saturday and do 36 holes on Sunday...we'll see.

Pearland, Texas

So, my first time in Texas...Chris was practically raised here. We flew into Houston on Monday and arrived at the course by 10:30am - so that was an early morning. We've got THE BEST host family in Pearland. We stayed in their "Texas room" at their house in Alvin the first two nights. Yesterday Chris played in the Pro-Am with Debbie and a few of her friends and the shoot-out with Howard. Last night was the Pro-Am dinner which was a lot of fun with barbeque and a local country and western band. Today we moved over to their house by the course so that's going to be very convenient for the week while the tournament is going on. It's kinda of rainy today so Chris is getting in practice while he can and I'm working on lesson plans and other fun stuff. We go late, then early on Thursday and Friday.

You can always tell...

when he's missed a cut. There seems to be a lack of an update. So, we missed the cut in Miami and headed home for a couple of weeks. It was nice to get some work in at home and we were able to spend July 4th in town. It's been hard to find a good practice and playing facility for Chris since Springhouse still isn't up and running from the May flood. We're excited about this week and then looking forward to taking some time off for some summer fun, a wedding and preparing for Q school.
