Greenbrier Classic 2011

My boss is awesome and got us tickets to The Greenbrier Classic this year. It was the first (and probably only) professional golf tournament we will ever go to. It was pretty sweet.

First of all we met Daniel Summerhays. He is from Farmington, Utah. He came to our church the Sunday before the tournament. He is a pretty awesome guy. It was cool to be able to talk to a pro up close and personal. Unfortunately he didn't make the cut.

When we first got there we found these guys writing on the old timey leader board.

I decided I wanted this guy, Trevor Immelman to take it all. On one of the holes he hit his ball really close to us and was very polite and had a cool South African accent.....so I decided I like him.

This is Hall of Fame Pro Golfer Tom Watson. He has won many tournaments

in his day and didn't do too shabby at this classic.

And then there was PHIL MICKELSON!!!
There were tons of people following him around of course but

we still got pretty close to him. It was awesome!

Good Old Lefty....

He almost hit us with his tee shot! That is how we were so close

when he had to hit out of the rough.

We had a blast! Who knew by moving out to West Virginia

we would end up going to a Pro Golf Tournament?

Summer 2011

We had a blast this summer! In June Spencer was able to spend 2 weeks in New Mexico with his awesome uncle and aunt, Steve and Caryn. Steve set him up with a doctor to shadow. Spencer really enjoyed it and learned A LOT! He was able to spend time with the family and whenever he was home he had a cute little companion, Emily.

The beginning of my trip was not as fun as Spencer's. My flight kept getting delayed so I got to spend the night in the Atlanta, Georgia airport. This was my bed...

After 2 LONG weeks we met up in Utah! Spencer picked me up from the SLC Airport and we head straight up to Sun Valley where we spent the week with the McConkie Family!

We spent some time at Red Fish Lake. It was beautiful but the water was freezing. The kids didn't mind though!

Cute Annie did some drawings for us!

Little Eli just being a boy...

We spent a day at the pool. Annie was showing us her awesome swimming skills.

Tyler was "helping" Sam swim.

Molly and Grace had so much fun!

Here is Dave and cute little Kate!

Kate let me hang out with her a little bit too.

Before we left I had to race Dave in the pool. I won but I guess it wasn't too fair since he has one less toe than me... ha ha

After Sun Valley we spent the 4th of July weekend in Samak, Utah with the Tingey's. We also were able to enjoy the Oakley, Utah Rodeo! We loved hanging out in Utah with all of our friends and family!

The Cabin was awesome! It was so relaxing.

Spencer missed his dogs!









We definitely got some hiking in. The water was the highest I have ever seen it! I love the Uintas! They are so beautiful!

We ate well....very well.

We got to play the golf ball game!

A great Tingey tradition.

And then there was....The Perfect Mallow...

We had such a great time in Utah! We love our family so much and are so excited when we get to see them!

When we got back from Utah Spencer signed up for a bike race in Blacksburg, Virginia but we found out the night before we left that it was cancelled, so because we had a nonrefundable hotel room we decided to take the trip! We checked out Virginia Tech's campus (which is beautiful) and did some golfing!

It was an awesome summer!!!
