Brown Lake-ation 2012

YES! We love August! The annual Brown Family Boating/Skiing/Eating extravaganza! We seriously missed Shaina this year and Kyle for that matter! But we had a lot of fun all being together and eating peaches!!
Welcome to Wenatchee! Same house we stayed in last year, we love it!

 And so begins the football throws!
 This one is way funny because Brad was throwing, I was filming, and Mel was driving. As soon as Brad throws it Mel yanks back on the break and Brad and I went flying! haha we didn't get hurt, it was just pretty funny!

IMG_1043 IMG_1050 IMG_1051We love our 3 nephews, niece and 2 on the way so much! I wish we all saw each other more, but it makes us cherish the times we have together! Thank heavens for FaceTime :)
 
It was a busy/relaxing week and we loved every minute of it. Holding true to tradition 2 of us got sick. Me for about 18 hours, and Dan’s lungs sounded pretty bad. Mine was rough, but it didn’t last long (thank you pepto-gatorade combo). Charley, Mel, Jesse, Brad and I got a lot of runs in on the boat considering we were missing so many people! Shaina was home using all her energy to grow a baby, Em wasn’t feeling like getting on a boat because she is pregnant as well, and Kyle is in Uruguay! We threw the football, Brad didn’t catch it so we swung back around and picked up the football while Brad was still on the wakeboard – 4 times! He was pretty tired after that run :)

  3. Shaina- Brad hated that movie!! hahaha my family thinks its hilarious. Both Jesse and Jeff said they liked it too so Brad blamed it on being an "in-law" thing. Haha I will happily report to him that it is not! We missed you though!
