A Father's Day Celebration

Last Wednesday: What a surprise when we woke B up with a card saying he had to drink his coffee, take a shower, get dressed in the new outfit I had hanging up, and load up in the car... all without asking where we were taking him!
And, he had a tee-time with his golf buddy at 8:30!
North along the shore of Lake Michigan.
Whistling Straits Country Club, Kohler, Wisconsin
venue of the PGA Championship this August.

I could see this as our next home- love the architecture!
Father & Son taking a stroll.
Luncheon at the clubhouse with a gorgeous view of Lake Michigan and the links.
Next stop, Blackwolf Run Country Club....
...where I surprised B with a private golf lesson thru the Kohler Golf Academy.
...for an hour he and his instructor worked on technique...
...while the little one and I enjoyed the picturesque natural surroundings...
....
.......
Don't you love his little golf-themed polo?!
After the lesson we viewed the PGA Championship Exhibit.
I know B would love to get his hands on this cup.
Each display had either a club, shirt or shoes that the golfer wore to clinch their title.
A tasty afternoon beverage at the Craverie Chocolatier Cafe.

A wonderful way to celebrate one of the most amazing dads!
Glad he made mention that it was all worth missing his golf outing :)
We will be back to Kohler- it is now one of our family's getaways, and reminded me so much of Evanston. Can't wait till the kids are old enough and can go golfing with Daddy while Mommy gets to enjoy the spas and design showrooms!
