The Perryton Rangers won first place! And my baby boy won 1st place individual. In fact, it was a medal sweep with the Rangers taking 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th individual, as well as 1st place team.
the whole teammy kid!
Finishing out with a birdie putt to finish with an even par score of 72.
I must mention that it is his last tournament on his home course as a high school golfer. Mama was a little teary eyed. What a great day!
I’m a simple woman…at least that what my DH (Dear Husband) used to say about me…I was a wife, I am now a widow, mother, step-mother & step-grandmother, quilter, and have a full time job in criminal justice. I lost my DH on May 22nd, 2011. I live in a small town in Texas. I love piecing quilts, I love quilting quilts. I have a serious addiction to fabric. I’ve been quilting since 1998, and purchased my first longarm, a Gammill Premier, in 2004. I upgraded to an A-1 Elite, named Corky, in March, 2007. I am in the process of rebuilding my life after losing my spouse.

That is just so exciting! AND the win for the team. AND the win for Derek AND the medal sweep! Whew! I think maybe the par round was probably the best part. Good stuff, Derek. Keep your Mama proud.
Look at those medals. It must have been a bittersweet moment for you. Their whole lives you prepare them for being an adult and when they get there, you just want them to be a little boy a bit longer.

Terrific, Randy! I hope you didn’t burst your buttons. This is such a fun part of life. A birdie for the last stroke seems a bit of a nail biter. : )
