A Weekend at the Masters

Jonathan and I spent this past weekend at Augusta National. It was nothing short of amazing. Everything about the course and the Masters was way more than i ever expected. The scenery is beyond beautiful and seeing all the pro golfers up close was very cool. When we were watching replays on TV on Sunday night, I kept saying to J, "I can't believe we only live 5 miles from there." You feel like you step into a different world. You def don't feel like you are in Augusta. I am so thankful that we were able to go this year and experience the Masters while living in Augusta.
Ansley gave us the badges and so it was great to hang out with her for two days. I can't thank her enough for asking us to go both Sat. and Sun. On Saturday we met up with Catie and Will and a few other friends, and then on Sunday we hung out with Ansley and some her of friends for half the day before we started on our trek around the course. We decided to follow our fav, Phil. He was paired up with Tiger Woods, so of course the crowds following them were ridiculous. Despite the crowds we were still able to get pretty close on certain holes. We were hoping that Phil would come back and win the Masters, but with a few mistakes on his part, it didn't happen. I am not too excited about Angel Cabrera winning, but oh well. I'm just glad Tiger didn't win.
Overall, it was an awesome, yet tiring weekend. All that walking wore us out.
