A Preggo Day at the Memorial

The Memorial Golf Tournament in Columbus has become a staple in my calendar year after year. We take our top clients to Columbus and entertain them on the course. Its one of the most fun "work days" of the year. Usually, there's some pretty professional alchohol consumtion while watching the professional players make the game of golf look like child's play. Not only is it fun to watch the golfers, the people watching is also top notch. Our company rents a house on the 18th green and this becomes home base. Our clients love spending Friday there and its a great opportunity to show our appreciation. This tournament is like also happens to be a "who's who" in Ohio Media Sales...its a great place to network and catch up with counterparts in the industry. Its fun.

Its even fun sans adult beverages. It was great to see old collegues and be able to share the good news of Little B with them. We weren't overly private about our situation with needing donor IVF so it was nice to share the happy chapter in the story with them.

And I'm pretty proud of my ability to hang...in 85 degree heat, walking the course (about 3-4 miles with a bunch of hills), and staying active from 11:30a when we arrived til 5:30 when we headed out. I never realized how hilly the course was...its beautiful, but not flat at all.

The activity was great and we got to see some really good golf. Then, I went back on Saturday with Mike, his brother Kevin, and one of our college friends. It was nice to be outside so much. If only Little B could see all the places we were going. In due time :)
