Where better to share great news than with friends at the 19th Hole?

That being said, I would like to share with you that my husband and I are expecting a future PGA or LPGA super star in Febuary. This will be our first baby so you can imagine our excitement.

I'm looking forward to the Second Trimester where I'm told I will play the greatest golf of my life.  All I can say is BRING IT ON!  I can't wait.

We won't know if we are going to be blessed with a boy or a girl until the end of September. At that time, be prepared to participate in a name the baby contest. You think I'm joking....I'm not.

It should be fun and I hope to celebrate this exciting time with all my friends here at the 19th Hole.

The WeReview4U’s recent blog reminded me that Father’s Day will be here before we know it.

With that in mind, I want to invite everyone to help me pay a special tribute to all of the Great Dad’s out there.

I don’t know about you, but had it not been for my Dad I would never have learned how to “grip it and rip it” or how to hit a one-handed back hand punch shot when that drive went astray and my ball ended up on the wrong side of a tree trunk. I would have never learned how to gamble with the boys while acting like a lady. I would never have felt the exhilaration of going for that par five in two and the lesson learned when that ball didn’t quite make it and went splash. I would never have learned that following rules is honorable and cutting the corner and going for the green takes guts. 

In honor of all of the great men who love golf, I have created a 19thHole Group, “Father Knows Best”. This Group is Open to ALL members.

Please join this group and submit a new entry and share your story about your Dad.  Maybe his favorite joke, swing tip, funny story or just a special memory on the golf course. Is Dad not a golfer?  That’s OK, you are. Surely somewhere along the way you have passed a bit of wit and wisdom on to your children or an impressionable youngster. Don’t be stingy!  Don’t be shy. Share that advice with all of us.  We want to celebrate you, too.

Let’s make this year’s Father’s Day the best ever!

Webster defines a Hole-In-One as “The driving of a golf ball from the tee into the hole in a single stroke.”  Come OOONNNN!!!!!  Could it sound any more boring? (No wonder non-golfers make fun of real golfers.)

The definition just doesn’t do it justice!  I can’t think of any thing more exciting or dramatic than the all perfect golf shot --- AKA: Hole-in-one. 
 

I don’t care how great of a player you might be, when it comes to a hole-in-one, you have to admit that the stars align perfectly just for you.  Sometimes a hole-in-one is picture perfect and sometimes it’s a bladed shots that bounces off the ball washer, hits the flag and then go in the hole.  HOWEVER, as we all know too well, it doesn’t really matter how it happens, just that it does.
 

I created a Group here at the 19thHole.com celebrating hole-in-one’s and those lucky enough to feel the rush of a perfect shot.
 

If you’ve had a hole-in-one before, I want to hear all about it.  Don’t leave anything out! Was it a tuning fork in your loins or was it a slap shot that got a good bounce? 

I have a friend here at the 19thHole that has had 5…Yes! F…I…V…E….hole-in-ones.  (Girlfriend should have bought a lotto ticket a long time ago).  Have you had more than 5? 
 

Let’s see who here at the 19thHole holds the record for most, the luckiest, the unluckiest (like me and had my only hole-in-one when I hit a mulligan……YIKES!) and even those that have come just centimeters from golf’s greatest shot.
