Grandma's Birthday and Brown Family Golf Outing

Below you will find pictures of Grandma on her 92nd birthday where we all gathered at the golf course that Grandpa built and our cousin Darren currently owns.

The Cornhole Tournament

While we were all gathered for Kaytlann's birthday party, we had a cornhole tournament with three sets of boards. Earlier in the summer we had the Father's Day gathering and had a huge tournament as well, but people complained that there were no trophies. So this year, Josh "acquired" 4 pieces of corn from some local fields while Kaylee and I were on the lookout and he painted silver and gold take home trophies. Mom also joined in on the fun and mixed candy corn with peanuts for some prizes as well. We all had a great time and had some new champions in the tourney.

Trip to Florida

Nate, Kate & I were able to squeeze a 3 day trip into Florida. We were able to visit the beach one evening with Uncle Jeff & Aunt Jenny where Grandpa found a HUGE snail. We visited Aaryn, Rick, Logen & Carsen and were able to catch up at Aunt Judy's house with all of her family. We had a great trip in a short amount of time and thanks everyone for taking time out of their busy schedules to visit!!
