Draft Order Party

The big boys (Brandon, Cory, Brian, and Josh) got together to pick the order of the draft. This is were they sit in a chair and throw a tennis ball at an empty beer can (they have to drink the beer first) that has a name on the bottom. When one is hit that person goes on the list for draft order 10-1.
Before the picks were made there was a family BBQ at the Curry home.
Here are a few pics of the kids that were there.
