Professional Putt-Putt

This is the last Mallorca post I promise, but I had to show off our amazing golf skills. 

Towards the end of our trip we decided instead of going to a not-so-nice putt-putt course "we" would play on a real course. We got the after 5 pm special and only played 9 holes so it was basically the same price and the scenery was a bit more enjoyable. 


Stephen did all the long shots and I got to be his caddy girl/putter! 



I didn't really bring golfing attire so Stephen let me borrow one of his polos.....and it actually fit pretty good since at this point I was almost 5 months pregnant. From the front it is not so apparent, but....


from the side you can see it - although the shirt was ballooning a bit!


 We did not get the best score on the front nine, but we really enjoyed the afternoon!



 Oh and lastly, here is a picture of the cathedral in Palma, Mallorca - we visited it the day we flew out!

There was a special Owl Display that Stephen loved in the Castle.
Who knew you can pet Owls!

Arcade Strong Man Champion!

One night in Majorca we went out to eat and walked along the boardwalk. Most of the stores were closed because of it being low-season still, but luckily for us the arcades were still open! 

As you know Stephen grew up on a farm so he is really good at chopping wood, which translates to being really good at hitting things hard! He showed off his chopping skills and....



 got the high score in the game to the delight of his wife and a random couple that stood around to watch!


And just to rub it in, he beat his own best score on the last try and can truly be called the "KING Hammer"! Bet you didn't know he held that title!

How to Make Lemonade in Majorca, Spain

At the end of April we took a short trip to a spanish island called Majorca to celebrate our anniversary...just a little late! It is a really popular european destination for travelers and there are very affordable flights almost everyday from Germany! We rented a tiny apartment close to the coast and soaked in the sun. Our terrace was bigger than our apartment so we took advantage of grilling out and making homemade lemonade and orange juice from the trees in our garden! 




Here is how we made lemonade....which turned out great I have to say!


Choose the best lemons...not to brown but a little soft. 




Make your husband take a picture too!


Boil a couple cups of water and add some sugar, based on how sweet you want your lemonade. 


Juice your lemons....



and really put your wrist into it!


Add your fresh squeezed lemon juice to the sugar water and refrigerate.

Enjoy!

More pictures to come from our trip!
