Every May the Colonial PGA golf tournament comes to Fort Worth. Along with this exciting week several of the PGA golfers pay a visit to Cook Children’s Medical Center. As part of my job (and I do get paid to do this) the child life department creates a putt putt course in the atrium for patients to come play putt putt, meet pro golfers and get autographs.

Two of my wonderful coworkers-Katie and Audra-decided that this year our hole should be themed, “Going to the Chapel.”  As you can see that is what “we” decided on. It wasn’t my idea but I jumped on the bandwagon fast when I heard their ideas. We made a chapel out of boxes, made a car with cans tied to the back and even had a sign in book with one of our engagement photos at the check in table. We had wedding music playing, a bubble machine and we even went as far as to find the worst dresses we could in our storage room to wear as bridesmaid dresses! It was tons of fun and I got to tell every patient, family, staff member and golfer about Greg. (I think Katie and Audra were ready to throw up by the time it was over). There are more pictures of the event under photos if you want to look at a few others.

Hope your weekend is good. We have been working on invitations and the invitation list and are about to have all that goes along with that wrapped up.

We had the pleasure of eating dinner with Derek and Jace Senter last night. They invited us over for fabulous fajitas and incredible chocolate chip cookies that we discovered is a secret recipe….too bad for us!  I was very excited when we walked in and saw that they had Rockband in their living room. After dinner we turned it on and played a little. Another part of my job at the hospital is playing games such a Rockband…..always with the patients of course and so I have had lots of practice on this game! I do have to admit that I was a little excited to show off my guitar playing skills to Greg since I am now playing on the level Hard!  I really thought that he would see how good I was and then he would try-not do very well (because he has never played) and then go on to tell me how “good” he thought I was. Well, once again things didn’t quite work out that way. He hit 90% of his notes…..ON HIS FIRST TRY and by the third round he was playing on level MEDIUM!  Needless to say I didn’t bring it up on the way home!!!!!!! HaHa.

We met with our Ruidoso group today and got lots accomplished! I think after another meeting or two our group will be ready to teach Daniel and the Lions Den to 30 rowdy 5 and 6 year olds!!! We are praying for the Mexico mission trip that left this morning! It’s the largest mission group we send out all summer and I know the town and the people they will be working with will be blessed! Please pray for them this week!

Have a great Saturday!
