Shortly after we began going to Big Cedar Lodge in 2014 to celebrate Ray and Angie's birthdays we started the Annual Moss Family Putt Putt tournament. This year was the 4th official playing of the event.
This is all of us as we prepared to tee off. Had I examined this photo carefully before we set off, I would have noted that look of ease and assuredness on Brother's face, and I would have stepped on his foot in order to handicap him slightly.
Alas, I did not. When he got a 5 on The Big Lunker hole, I thought I might be able to pull off a repeat of my win at the first annual tournament in 2015.
But my hopes were dashed with his hole in one on #5.
This event was followed by a leisurely lunch at the Truman cafe, where we all carefully watched as the scores were tallied.
In the end, Brother brought it home with a 4 under for first place, followed by Dottie in second, me at third, Chris at #4, and Cheryl at #5. Dottie had the line of the day when, after sinking a long putt, she looked up and said "who caddy fo' her daddy?"
It brought us to tears laughing, and we haven't stopped saying it yet.
