Hey Family, I Need Your Help - day 4

By now most of you may be aware I am a top 5 finalist for Wahl Grooming Benevolent Beards Contest. Wahl Grooming

Some of you might have noticed that for the past three months, I’ve been growing a beard. For those who have been with us for a while, you know I’m usually clean-shaven. Well, there’s a good reason for this change—I’ve entered the Wahl Benevolent Beards Contest, where the grand prize is $25,000! The winner gets $20,000, and an additional $5,000 goes to the charity of their choice.

I’ve chosen our organization as my charity. If I win, I’ll be donating the entire $20,000 prize back to us so we can purchase more lawn equipment for the kids who complete the 50 Yard Challenge. Donations for lawn equipment have slowed down recently, and this would be a tremendous help, especially since we can buy in bulk when the season ends and everything goes on sale.

**You can vote once from the same IP address** Some have told me they have been able to vote again once a 24hr period is up. Vote from different devices at home,work, etc. Voting ends on September 9th. Ps. The way they have it set up we can’t tell how many votes we have .

I’m competing against four other incredible guys who also support great causes.

Thank you all for voting !!!

This happens the SAME DAY the Biden-Harris administration's Title IX rewrite goes into effect in the US

THIS is exactly what it allows for & celebrates. Don't be surprised or ask "how did we get here?" when this continues to happen at an exponential rate

Friday night lights…. There’s only ONE thing wrong with this picture🤔

[Julie Holt @turf_editor]

You know, if this is how we go…. Idk, I feel like it’s a fairly karmic ending🤷🏼‍♀️

This is how it ends: Someone added ChatGPT to a Furbie and it is hellbent on world domination. https://t.co/PrAkykSBPh

Thank God for these brave men.

[Julie Holt @turf_editor]

@KernsJim @GCImagazine @HutchensWendell 👏🏼👏🏼Well deserved!! Congrats!

@TurfEnto This is literally what I did this afternoon also- for the first time! I’m EXHAUSTED!

Why am I just now seeing this video? Y’all see what he said?!?

[Julie Holt @turf_editor]

When your kids have gone to school and Mom won’t play with you because she “has to work and put food on the table.” Never a sadder story has been told.

.@iamrodneysmith your story is incredible- I continue to be amazed at how you’ve become a servant and a leader at the same time. Truly incredible to watch how God uses those who are willing and open!

[Rodney Smith Jr @iamrodneysmith]

This was the post that started it all. Even before this even happened I remember asking God to use me as his vessel. He didn't give me an answer the day that I asked him, not a month later , not even a year later. It happened a few years later and this would be that day

Overheard from the back yard:

8yo: DAD!!DAD!! Can I use this crowbar to chop some wood??

Torn between intervening and pretending I heard nothing.🤔

That feeling when you get your mom all to yourself for a three day getaway to @UniversalORL

My youngest, the only boy, made me a bookmark for Mother’s Day. He decided to make one for himself while he was at it. Had a little typo, but you know what? It still works…

[Julie Holt @turf_editor]

You know what hasn’t changed in 30+ years? I felt young for a couple of hours, but don’t ask me in the morning. #didntbreakahip

Fresh cut is Jessie approved💜

My front porch is the best place to watch the weather roll in. At least until all the angry red spots on the radar arrive tonight.
