Pedicure Pampering in Greeley

While Britton and the boys were out golfing…we were getting pampered with pedicures!


Getting pedicures

What a life. Britton’s out swinging the clubs and I am hanging out with my girlfriends getting my feet massaged, my toe nails painted and drinking mimosas.

My good friend Kelly is getting married next weekend, so we did these fun, lavish activities as part of the festivities to celebrate. It took almost as long to get all of our pedicures as it did for Britton to play 18 holes! But it was a fun time.

In the summer I mostly walk around barefoot or in flip-flops and don’t worry too much about putting on polish or anything, so it was definitely a treat.

Golf at Mariana Butte in Loveland

Yesterday I did something I don’t do very often, I went golfing!  I took a golf class in highschool and we spent some time on the driving range and some time chipping and putting, but never actually played a round of golf.  It wasn’t until years later I got a chance to play on a course in Utah when we visited Cassie’s aunt and uncle.


Practicing in our backyard (with the chickens)

Well here was another opportunity.  I had to come up with a set of clubs though.  I knew one of my good friends had a set of clubs, so I asked if I could borrow them for the day.  He graciously agreed, and even dropped them off!  So I was all set to go.


Carts Lined Up

Whoever came up with the idea of golf carts was a genius.   They make the game so much fun (but less exercise).


Cart and View

The landscape of a golf course in Colorado is so vastly different than the natural landscape.  It must take quite a bit of time/energy to keep it looking so green.  There were course marshals driving around and making sure everything ran smoothly.  They suggest that the course should be played in about 4 1/2 hours for a full 18 holes.  We came pretty close to that (I think 5).

Golfing is a fairly expensive hobby and it’s for that reason that I don’t go very often. But it is fun every now and then and a good excuse to hang out outside with friends.
