Ryder Cup

When Sharen and I were deciding how to spend our next big milestone birthday it was a no brainer.

We both love the Ryder cup and it was coming to Medinah on our birthday weekend.

The problem was how to get tickets. You would think a son in the golf business would find a way. Jon just laughed when we talked about it and said "yeah, good luck with that". We have been teasing him for the last 2 years that tickets to the Ryder Cup would make awesome 60th birthday presents.

He did tell us about the lottery for tickets so we both took our chances and signed up for 4 tickets on Tuesday and 4 on Wednesday.

Who would of thunk it - but we both got chosen to buy tickets. We could NOT have been more excited. Until yesterday when the tickets actually came in the mail.

OMG - I have tickets to the practice rounds for the Ryder Cup. We both have a few to sell.

We chose to go to the practice rounds because we didn't want to miss one single shot when the competition starts and the only way to see that is on TV. ( I even bought a new HD TV to watch it)
and the players are a bit more relaxed and responsive to spectators on practice days.

So on Tuesday we are going with our husbands to scope out each hole and where we want to go on Wednesday so we won't waste any time waiting around for some one to show up - and also allow them to buy us each a birthday present in the souvenir tent. :)

On Wednesday, our 60th birthday, we will walk around Medinah together enjoying our day.

And over the weekend you will find us watching the action from the comforts of our home. Every last shot

CANNOT WAIT!!!!!! GO USA!!
