Dude! Hell, I remember your gender reveal post that seems just like yesterday! Congrats to you and mama, brother. Get ready for the best years of your life, man.
 
Golf with friends today. Great day.
 
Yesterday was the best time I’ve ever had with my son on the course. He hit some great for him shots. It was fun.
 
My great-niece announced she is due with her fourth child. While I was face timing with her daughter she told me "Mom has something to tell you. But can't tell you. But I can tell you (4) " :D:D:D
And I got a full price offer on a home that I built last summer. First showing since December. Realtor did the showing with his phone, showing the buyer who is from out of town. Strange times. Super happy as I get to finish the basement. So I get a couple of weeks of work.:):)
 
Took my wife to the OB specialist today. Everything looks good. Strong heart beat. Baby is 13 weeks and about 3.5 inches long. They are doing some blood work/genetic testing. Hoping to have that back in a couple weeks!
 
Happy that after being shut down for 175 days, our club opened yesterday. It was cold and windy and we even had a little rain but it was glorious to play golf again. Tee times every day this week makes for a great distraction during these strange and disturbing times. We played as a fivesome through 12 holes when two of them went home because of the rain. We finished in our normal 3:25 which is also something to celebrate as the seven or eight rounds of resort golf I played in the last 6 months mostly involved some waiting around between shots.

Finally found some more TP this week!
 
A few of us got together for @Doubleb21 birthday today. I had my best nine holes with 3 birdies in a row. The back nine deserves to be in a rant thread!

happy birthday, Brian. It was great playing with you and the others there! Such a fun day

Our head greenskeeper has been with our club for 23 years and does an amazing job. We have the reputation for having some of the best greens in the state and he is a genius. The trees won't have full leaves for another three weeks but the course will be in mid-summer shape by then. :)

Thank you for coming out! Great day and some great golf amigo!
 
For the first time this year I played 18 holes and had zero knee pain!!! That is a huge happy for me because it's been miserable up to this point.
 
I have started working with my 8 year old daughter to get her ready for her first cross country season which meant a 35 minute run together today!
 
Today I came in from mowing to my kids chanting daddy, clapping their hands, and giving out hugs! I was only outside an hour, but was it so fun coming back in! I love these moments!
 
Today I bought my nephew (he is 4 ) a soccer ball for his birthday! He called me so excited when it was delivered and he opened it! Got to see videos of him playing with it and how excited he is to start practicing soccer for the upcoming instructional league!
 
My wife is celebrating a birthday today in quarantine! It's been so fun with drove bys and dropping off goodies and surprises to make the best of it!

Got a check in call from my buddy and friend @PKorf today just to shoot the S! He must have known I've been a bit off lately....well, more so than usual! Work has been bat S crazy the past 2+ weeks (grateful to still be working), have not been on THP much other than to jump in and out to read what I can (although I did watch the 'Live giveaway from Wednesday with @JDax.... was great, but your bro is correct, you're lying, McGriddles > Chic fil a #7, oh and check your grips, they may be crooked ;)) golf continues to be shut down in my area (although Napa County is opening back up on Monday.... Now I need to see how to become a county resident real quick)!

Really appreciate the vine Paul and was great to catch up!

Wait.... is winter ever really over.... I mean in MN? 😜. As you know my youngest son is at Carleton in Northfield and he’s really missing spring in MN.... said he can’t wait to head back when this stuff is over...
Lake looks beautiful!
 
Played golf yesterday afternoon. Playing golf this morning. Life is good!!
 
Fresh-squeezed orange juice is hard to beat.

The kids don't like the oranges they're getting in the school lunches we've been picking up, because they're too hard to peel. It's a little labor-intensive, but the end result is well worth it.
