The time from finding out the team made it to the National Golf tournament until now has been a blur and full of excitement! We arrived safe and sound (err not so much sound when Coach is driving) in Michigan yesterday after a 10 hour car ride. On the ride we shared many laughs and enjoyed going through Chicago.
Today has been a BLAST!!! There have been so many great memories in one day, it’s hard to put into words everything that happened. It was a beautiful morning spent walking around downtown Grand Rapids followed by a quality practice session with finally some nice weather. We ate at a great italian restaurant called Mangiamo. It is in a beautiful old mansion that has been restored. To our delight, one of the dining rooms had a chalk board surrounding it. That made the wait for the fabulous dinner fly by.
Tonight we went to a minor league baseball game after a dinner none of us will ever forget. The first inning wasn’t even completed when it started raining, lighting, and hailing. We stuck it out through the rain delay and managed to snag front row seats after that, which we dried off nicely with the bathroom paper towels. The mission of the game was to get a baseball. After unsuccessfully flirting with the bat boy, we managed to get one from the bullpen pitchers. Success J
By the end of the night and after struggling to park our 15 passenger van, coach was definitely ready for a break from all of us girls. It was a fun-filled day and we can’t wait to hit the course for our practice round tomorrow.
