Sean's 16th Birthday Blog: Golfing, Dinner, Ice Cream and Go Karting

The weather was overcast but the rain held off while the boys played a little golf.

Ready to tee off

It looks good

Great follow-through

The follow-through

Aiming for the lake

Nice form

"Maybe if I clean my ball..."

" I'm so glad I have my driver's license."

"Are you supposed to have a license???"

"I'm going to get a hole-in-one!"

"I think I'll stick to driving the cart instead of the ball..."

Lining up perfect putts

Putting perfection

"What is the beach doing in the middle of this course??"

The home of 9 of Mike's golf balls.

"You look over there. I'll look over here. We're out of balls."

"I thought for sure I added this right the first time..."

Mrs. L - this one's for you!

We moved from Seneca Farms to Go-Karts. My only regret was that this wasn't in the original plan this evening so I did not have my best camera with me. I borrowed from one of the boys and did my best. I do have to say I learned one very important lesson:

Five 16 year-old boys (and their testosterone) + go-karts + empty raceway = TROUBLE!!

"Start your engines!"

...and they're off!

Steve is in the lead

Lap 2 - Steve is still in the lead

Kevin is so far behind he can only laugh. At this point I was ready to award the "Most Cautious Driver" award. That is, before Kevin "stopped" (so everyone would catch up, putting himself in the lead) and ended up....
