Mom hit 100 yards
Mom's new golf clubs totally rock, and she lately drove 100 yards. Here she is in action. Now Dad has new clubs too and they are going to be tearing up the driving range together.

its so cool that you chose grandma to be on the website! and I didnt know she hit a hundred yards.
Whoa whoa whoa, I just noticed, is that Aunt Liz? Hey, wassup!! It's Alex! Remember me? I still use that PEZ Dispenser you gave me! Say hi to everyone!
Sure, but in a picture off your mom when you have a handsome nephew... that's 11 years old... and is the oldest kid of the Gaiarin's, the Maher's, or the Marhoefer's... Ahem...
Actually, Laurie's mom can send quite a bit flying 100 yards-- she once sent Laurie's sister flying for some minor infraction when she was small. Laurie's mom has quite a swing with both the wooden stick and the golf club.
Dear L: Cute stuff. I'm pleased you are having so much fun there and that it goes well. One of your distant relatives (my son) is in his 3rd Week of Marine Corps Book Camp at Parris Island, S.C. Comparatively speaking, you are having more fun than he. PS: I think your mom would like a few more pictures of herself on line please. Thank you. Respectfully, Uncle Darth & Mayor Emeritus
And here I thought the criteia was more like how many balls lost per 9 holes? Harder to find 'em at 100 yards v. five or 25, you know. I still don't see the thrill in hitting a little hardball with a stick and then bragging about it...I still prefer tying two sticks to my feet and heading down an icy mountain - that's a real challenge.
This is to announce the beginning of the Golf Corner. Joe Maher, age 11, got a 94 for 18 holes, and Ben Gaiarin, age 9, hit 100 yards yesterday. Way to go, FAMILY!
Joe is so much better than me at everything- Except girls- so it doesn't suprise me. Oh, yeah and I'm a good diver. Man, but it's getting annoying. Sigh... But on a better note, SCHOOL OUT TODAY!!!! WHHHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for putting my photo and golf achievement on your blog. I only hit 100 yards a few times, but I'm going to do it again.
Things must be kind of slow in Germany if you are putting up pictures of your mom golfing.
Hey I have never been on a blog before! And to see my big sister can hit something 100 yards...cool!
You go girls!
Aunt M'Liz
G-ma, golfing and hitting a hundred yards??? Wow. But, geez Laurie, PLEASE post what G-pa will do with HIS new clubs. I 'spect it'll be funny...

Correction to the Golf Corner: Joe Maher shot a 93. Way to go, Joe!
