Visit to Florida with Tom, Pam, Matt & Ben



We visited Tom, Pam, Matt and Ben at their home in Coral Springs, Florida the week of March 9th. Their house is really nice, and I'm kinda sorry we didn't take any pictures. After arriving Monday afternoon Pam made dinner for us all and then we went to watch Matt play roller hockey. He looks like a pro out there and scored a goal for his team. The next day, Katie and I played the gold course at Doral.



We both did pretty well for our first round of the season. We saw Rory McIlroy and Vijay Singh practice putting for the PGA CA Championship (Mickelson won)

That looks like it was an awesome trip. Too bad Cap'n Taco got his enchiladas in a twist, that would have been cool to stay on the "Hooked up" boat. I'm glad you guys had fun, we need to go do something like that as a family again......I miss the sea!
