Masters Memories

The Masters Golf Tournament at Augusta National is coming up soon.
My husband and I were lucky enough to get invited to go the the practice rounds last year, and I thought I'd share my favorite photos I snapped while we were there.


The one above is Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, and Gary Player putting. Jamie was freaking out to see them in person. Look at the sea of people in the background. Madness.


The one above is the greens at Augusta National. One day my lawn shall look like this. Even the snacks, drinks, and beer at the Masters were super awesome (and cheap, believe it or not, $1 sandwiches, $1 beers, and special commemorative cups to boot!)

The one above is a sweet, candid shot of Jim Furyk fixing his daughter's ponytail (that's a bow in his mouth). Which reminds me that famous pro-golfers are regular folks too.

Spring! Thank God You're Here...

Ted sniffs a flower. He's such a good boy.
He's going to try out for the Maxeys soccer team this spring.
He just needs to learn not to pop the ball


My most favorite camellia bush in our yard. Have you ever seen such beauty?

Ted loves this Camellia too.
I recommend camellias, they come out in bloom in January and stay pretty through spring and require very little maintenance for such beauty.


The cats have been kicked out. They seem to be adjusting well.
However, Rose Petal refuses to leave the deck.
