His new obsession


This is my Norman Rockwell moment.....

As many of you know, my husband LOVES golf. He would do it everyday if he could. After Hollister's surgery, before he could go back to daycare, Trevor took him along for a round of golf which was already scheduled. Hollister LOVED it. He hit at every hole and was not ready to leave, even after 18 holes.

So, we bought him a $5 plastic golf set at Wal-Mart. he loved it. He is meticulous about having all the pieces together and playing it. He loves putting.

Well, Trevor has been searching for real golf clubs for him and yesterday when we got home, he surprised Hollister with some. He was crazy excited.
Trying on his new bag!

Of course, that meant going to golf Friday night at 5pm. We live close to a course, so we took him to the driving range.

He had the best time. then he had some putting practice and about an hour later, he was ready to go. It was hot, no shade on the putting green.

So, not only do we have football, basketball, and baseball as an obsession for Hollister. We now how golf, which by the way is the most expensive! He sure is cute though!

You'll notice, he is hitting left handed. This is his "natural" swing when we play at home for baseball or golf. The golf pro told Trevor to buy left handed clubs because its his instinct to hit (or swing) from that side. We don't really know which he is though, right or left.... but he can hit a golf ball and a baseball left handed.
