Warrior End of the Season Parent-Player Game

Justin (in the black shirt) and Grandpa Greg (next to him in white shirt) play in the parent-player (and extended family) game. The team always plays this game at the end of the season and then gives out its awards.

2nd Annual Miller-Brewer-Duras Anderson Island Golf Tournament

Sunday we hosted the 2nd annual Miller-Brewer-Duras Anderson Island Tournament. My parents have a home on Anderson Island on the 7th fairway of the golf course. Last summer we had an impromptu get together with the Duras family and the Brewer family and us. We had so much fun we decided to make it an annual event. Here is Uncle Mike putting on the 6th hole.

Like father, like son. James and Justin enjoy golfing together!

Daniel spent some quality time with us.

Gpa Clyde played horseshoes with Uncle Mike.

Grandpa Greg tried out Daniel's accordion.

Josh, Tyler, James, John and Jordan enjoy the picnic BBQ lunch/dinner. It was a great day and we are all looking forward to the 3rd annual tournament next summer.

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!!

Today for Father's Day we went to my parent's house for some "snackage" and some family time. My brother Mark and his family are out of town on vacation, so we did not officially celebrate-but we did go to my parent's house. This is my boys with my dad-"GPA" Clyde. Tyler has started calling him G-PA for some reason. I don't try to understand his teenage reasoning anymore...so I just go with the flow and "GPA" it is...


After my parent's house we went to James' Aunt Ann and Uncle Mike's house. Here are my 3 boys with James' dad "Grandpa Greg". Cousin Paul was at the BBQ and did a fine job as usual.
It was a great day!

We will be celebrating with my whole family in a couple of weeks when every one is back in town!

A Day on the Lake

Today we were able to spend the day at American Lake with Grandpa Greg. He has a boat on the lake. The boys each brought a friend along and they were able to swim, go inner tubing and wake boarding. (Justin in the picture on the tube). Grandpa Greg always takes his time with Justin, teaching him the correct way to wake board. The weather was perfect and although the water was rough, a great time was had by all!!!
