Have never played golf on my birthday and decided this was the year.  Had an early dinner with my wife to celebrate, then played 9 holes.  My wife just walked along as I played.  One the 6th hole just after hitting my tee shot I said “You’re going to get to see my 1st hole in one”.  The ball hit the green then disappeared. As we walked to the green, I figured it just rolled off the back.  She looks in the hole as I was putting my bag down, and said there it is.  What a great Birthday present.
