An Evolution of Sport Sorts [part 1]

When Josh and I were newlyweds, we loved being lazy on Sunday mornings: we slept in, watched TV in bed, and just laid around until it was time for church. I think back on those days quite often, now that we have sleepless nights with Kanyon and Josh wakes up at 5am to leave for work. On Sunday mornings in the summertime, the sport on TV is almost always golf. So back in those "good old days", he would curse the TV for not having anything better to watch. He disliked golf, and couldn't understand why anybody would want to watch such a boring sport--he couldn't believe it was even broadcasted!

Now his life revolves around golf...He's been a golf course superintendent for the past 8 years! He enjoys golfing now, too. I teased him when he bought his first set of clubs for wanting to participate in such a "boring" sport! Then he bought me a set of clubs so I could join him. I'm a terrible golfer, and usually go only a handful of times a year with him. So when Ammon was old enough, he bought some left-handed clubs for him, and in doing so, he found himself a golfing partner. Ammon loves to go! Ammon usually golfs once a week during the summer. He'll go with or without Josh; he even likes to go alone. A few weeks ago, he went with an old man, a middle-aged man, and a teenager--none of whom he'd ever met! This summer, Ammon took some group golf lessons. He had fun with some other boys playing the sport and learning about different hand grips, and how to improve his chipping, putting, and driving. I think it's so hilarious how the sport has evolved in our marriage! Who would've guessed that the sport he hated seeing on Sunday morning TV would become such an integral part of our lives!
P.S. He loves watching golf on TV on Sundays now!
