Minigolf!

While in Rexburg visiting the fam last month, we took the kiddos to Fat Cats and discovered a new fun pastime: miniature golf! There was a 9-hole glow in the dark course and the kids had a ball playing on it. So naturally they've been asking to go minigolfing ever since. 

Derek happened to get off early on Monday, so we took family home evening to Jungle River Minigolf! The kids had a great time again, of course.

Daddy tried to teach a little technique... you know, how to hold the club, how to swing, keep the long part of the putt forward. Just a few basics. Roman did pretty well with Daddy's help:



But left to his own devices...



Need I say more?


Xandri was also given a lesson... or two.... or six on how to hold her club. She kept forgetting and going back to her default- which looked so uncomfortable. Here, though, she's looking great.


Atta girl!


Avril didn't need much guidance herself and the other two looked on, impressed. Or impatiently. 


 She did a great job and even got a hole-in-one at the end!




After we finished our round, the kids begged for a ride on one of those quarter rides--- they had a whole row of like ten of them or something. And yeah, try three quarter rides. We only had three quarters between us, so  we picked the one little carousel that would seat the three of them. It took them around and around in a circle and while Xandri & Roman got their cheap thrill, Avril was less than impressed. I can't wait till they're big enough to take on real rides!
