Double Win + Deuce Pot Gold!

Josh and I started playing on the Friday Night Couples Golf League this summer. We've always talked about doing it in years' past, but never did. And now we're not sure why. We have LOVED going-even though it's only been 4 times that we've gone! Couples League is played Chapman-Style: we both tee off, then hit each other's drives, then pick the best ball and alternate hitting it until it goes into the hole. It's so much fun! The last 2 times we played, we got first place! Because our handicap was so high, our net score was excellent from surprisingly playing so well!
In addition to the scored rankings, the couples also play for the deuce pot cash. Every couple puts $2 in the deuce pot each Friday, and if a couple hits their ball into a hole in 2 shots, they win the money from the pot. The last time we played, we also won the deuce pot money! (Which, btw, went to paying the babysitter!) Josh had a good drive on #7, and I chipped it in from about 20 yards off the green. It was SO AWESOME! Of course I did the dance and the scream! I was just so excited that I hit it that well, and then Josh mentioned that we just won the deuce pot, which in turn produced an even louder and more animated screaming dance! (Sorry, no picture of THAT!) I have become addicted to playing couples golf now! But of course, now the season has unfortunately ended. :0( We WILL be back next year, though. And I can hardly wait!!!

great job, sister! Sure loved driving that golf car, that part is way more fun to me than the actual golf. :)
